Study Summary

The goal is to develop methodology to monitor flux in the citric acid cycle in brain via 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy at 7 Tesla.

Primary Outcome

Relative spectral amplitude at equilibrium time point (equilibrium will be defined from the spectra) of the lactate, glucose and bicarbonate spectral peaks arising from infused 13C glucose as measured by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (non contrast brain MRS 7T)
