With the use of MR 1,5T system, 90 patients with MS wereperformed MR imaging and 1HMRS: 20 CIS, 50 RR, 20 SP. Absolute levels ofNAA, Cr, Cho, mI, Lip, Lac and ratios of NAA/Cr, Cho/Cr, mI/Cr, Lip/Cr andLac/Cr obtained from lesions, NAWM, cortical grey matter and thalamic grey matterwere calculated.The following statistically significant changes were obtained. In lesions decrease ofNAA/Cr ratio and increase of Cho/Cr ratio were observed in all patients groups. InRR, SP forms increase of mI/Cr ratio and in CIS form increase of Lip/Cr and Lac/Crratios were detected. In NAWM decrease of NAA/Cr ratio was observed in allpatients groups. In RR, SP forms increase of Cho/Cr ratio and in RR form increaseof mI/Cr ratio were detected. In cortical grey matter decrease of NAA/Cr ratio wasobserved in all patients groups. In RR, SP forms decrease of Cho/Cr ratio and in SPform increase of Lip/Cr and Lac/Cr ratios were detected. In thalamus decrease ofNAA/Cr ratio was observed in all patients groups. In SP form increase of mI/Cr ratiowas detected. The correlation between EDSS and NAA/Cr, Cho/Cr ratios inNAWM, between EDSS and Lip/Cr, mI/Cr in lesions were shown. The metabolicabnormalities in MS patients may be detected using 1HMRS. The changes are seenin white and grey matter of brain.}, title={The assessment of white and grey matter of brain in multiplesclerosis using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy}, type={Praca doktorska}, keywords={white matter, multiple sclerosis, gray matter, proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy}, }
