31P and 1H Magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging
(MRSI) was used to measure pH and energy metabolism in
subacute stroke (mean of 6 days after stroke). We found
two inorganic phosphate signals in stroke tissue, which
indicates a fraction at alcalotic pH (7.38) and one at
regular pH (7.03). High energy metabolites were
decreased but not totally depleted.
