Given the rapid pace of discoveries in glioma genomics and metabolomics, it is likely that improvements in diagnostic imaging using UHF MRS can be made by systematically reanalyzing previously generated data in light of new knowledge. In this study, we tested this by reanalyzing existing UHF MRS spectra using a refined basis set that included the potential oncometabolite cystathionine
