Our study is the first research to investigate the relationship between 3D APT and 3D MRS on individual level. The APTw values were correlated with the metabolite concentrations or ratios of MRS, especially Cho concentration. We proposed that 3D APT can be potentially used in intra-operation system to guide surgical biopsy and tumor resection.
