The aim of this study was to introduce and test the
13
C
MRS localization scheme suitable for the measurement of
hepatic glycogen at 7T in short acquisition time. One
dimensional slice selective version of recently
introduced fully adiabatic extended ISIS sequence was
proposed and tested on phantom and in vivo on healthy
volunteers. 1D ISIS scheme applied at 7T presented
optimal localization performance and sufficient signal
to noise of natural abundance 1-
13
C hepatic
glycogen doublet in relatively short acquisition times
(416).
