To study the value of proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy ((1)H-MRS) with two-dimensional (2D) chemical-shift imaging (CSI) in evaluating brain gliomas. Thirty-six patients with gliomas received examinations with 2D-CSI. The VOI of MRS included the tumor, peritumoral edematous and nonedematous ar...
