Method, system and non-transitory computer-accessible medium can be provided for performing magnetic resonance spectroscopy for at least one structure. For example, with such method and/or computer-accessible medium, it is possible to receive information related to a substantially simultaneous acquisition of a stimulated echo pathway and a double spin echo associated with at least one portion of the at least one structure.

System, method and computer-accessible medium for spectroscopic localization using simultaneous acquisition of double spin and stimulated echoes

An exemplary embodiment of system, method, and computer accessible medium for magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging for improving signal-to-noise ratio per unit time and optimizing duty cycle in MRSI and/or for reducing chemical-shift artifacts can be provided. In one exemplary embodiment, an excitation pulse can be forwarded to the target and acquiring a signal from the target by multiplexing in time and space. The multiplexing procedure in time can involve (i) a segmentation of a field of view of the at least one portion of the target into a predetermined number of slabs that are acquired sequentially during each repetition time, and/or (ii) an acquisition of multiple voxels. Data can be generated based on the acquired signal. According to another exemplary embodiment, an excitation pulse can be provided to the target, and a signal can be acquired from the target. The excitation pulse can be a series of cascaded Hadamard pulse components. Data can be generated based on the acquired signal.

System, method and computer accessible medium for magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging

An exemplary embodiment of system, computer-accessible medium and method for determining exemplary values for acquisition parameters for a given time (e.g., imaging time) is provided, e.g., with the exemplary values being selectable to increase the signal-to-noise ratio. According to certain exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, data (e.g., image data) associated with at least one portion of a target can be generated. For example, a first signal from the target resulting from at least one first excitation pulse forwarded toward the target can be acquired using a plurality of acquisition parameters having first values. Further, a second signal from the target resulting from at least one second excitation pulse forwarded toward the target can be acquired using a plurality of acquisition parameters having second values, with the second values being different from the first values. The data (e.g., image data) may be generated based on the first and second signals.
