title = "P-31 magnetic resonance spectroscopy and near-infrared spectroscopy provide unique quantitative data for evaluation of exercising muscles",
abstract = "P-31 magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and near-infra spectroscopy (NIRS) have been used to characterize the dynamic aspects of human muscle contraction. P-31 MRS is a non-invasive method for measuring ATP, phosphocreatine (PCr), and pH in exercising muscles and thereby provides information regarding oxidative and glycolytic capacities for generating high energy phosphate compounds. NIRS evaluates kinetic changes in oxygen levels in muscles during exercise and recovery. These two methods provide unique quantitative data for studies of normal muscle contraction and for more complex investigations of muscle diseases. Non-invasive MRS and NIRS examinations are readily repeatable and yield important data for longitudinal patient evaluation and therapeutic management.",
