Fat unsaturation and poly-unsaturation measures can be obtained in vivo with magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) through the olefinic (≈5.4 ppm) and diallylic (≈2.8 ppm) resonances, respectively. Long echo time (TE) MRS sequences have been previously optimized for olefinic/methylene (≈1.3 ppm) or olefinic/methyl (≈0.9 ppm) measures. The objectives of this work, using a Point RESolved Spectroscopy (PRESS) sequence, are to: 1) Investigate olefinic, methyl and methylene resonance decay in subcutaneous, tibial, and breast adipose tissue to determine if a direct comparison of unsaturation measures can be made without correction for T2 losses. 2) Assess intra-individual fat unsaturation and poly-unsaturation measures in the three adipose tissues. 3) Estimate correction factors for olefinic to methylene ratios to compensate for J-coupling and T2 relaxation losses that take place when increasing PRESS TE from 40 ms to 200 ms (previously optimized long-TE). 4) Investigate the utility of an inversion recovery for resolving the olefinic resonance from water in adipose tissue.PRESS spectra were acquired from the three adipose regions (breast in female only) in healthy volunteers at 3 T. It was found that olefinic and methyl signal decays faster in breast tissue compared to in tibial bone marrow. Poly-unsaturation measures (diallylic/methylene) differ for tibial bone marrow compared to subcutaneous and breast adipose tissue, with average values of 1.7 ± 0.4, 2.2 ± 0.4, and 2.3 ± 0.8%, respectively. PRESS (TE = 40 ms) with an inversion recovery resolves the olefinic and water resonances in breast tissue with a signal to noise ratio approximately six times greater than that using PRESS with a TE of 200 ms. Stimulated Echo Acquisition Mode (STEAM) with a TE of 20 ms (mixing time of 20 ms) was also combined with IR to resolve the olefinic resonance from that of water is spinal bone marrow.
