Brain glutamate in medication-free depressed patients: A proton MRS study at 7 Tesla
- Abstract:
-
Background: The possible role of glutamate in the pathophysiology and treatment of depression is of intense current interest. Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) enables the detection of glutamate in the living human brain and meta-analyses of previous MRS studies in depressed patients have suggested that glutamate levels are decreased in anterior brain regions. Nevertheless, at conventional magnetic field strengths (1.5- 3 Tesla), it is difficult to separate glutamate from its me...
