Absolute metabolite concentrations in human brain were obtained from short echo-time CSI (TR/TE 3000/30 ms, 6 averages, 19<br />

minutes) using a phased-array headcoil. A voxel-wise calibration was based on a combination of transmitter amplitude and water<br />

reference scans obtained with both body- and headcoil (
