This study demonstrates the applicability of semi-LASER localized dynamic (31)P MRS to deeper lying areas of the exercising human soleus muscle (SOL). The effect of accurate localization and high temporal resolution on data specificity is investigated. To achieve high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at...
