Overview

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MR spectroscopy) study for medulloblastoma demonstrates an elevated choline level and a reduced N-acetyl aspartate level. MR spectroscopy study also demonstrates a peak in taurine level.^[1]

Other Imaging Findings

Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

MR spectroscopy imaging may distinguish medulloblastoma from other differential diagnosis. Medulloblastoma features include:^[1]

Elevated choline level
Significantly elevated taurine level
Reduced N-acetyl aspartate level
