Hi TARQUIN users',
I would like to know if TARQUIN allow to applied correction factors to the metabolite
concentrations to account for metabolite T1 and T2 relaxation effects.
Otherwise, how to do that?
Thanks in advance,
Frédéric

Hi Neda,
The purpose of the water attenuation factor in Tarquin is to account for the fact that the water signal will have attenuated with longer TE. Basically it is an estimate of how much water signal is left at the TE chosen. This means that as TE gets longer, the attenuation factor gets smaller (as you found out).
You can use your estimate, or you can also just set the attenuation factor to 1, water concentration to 55500 mM – and correct for relaxation effects outside of Tarquin using excel and the equations discussed in:
“Near, J., Harris, A. D., Juchem, C., Kreis, R., Marjańska, M., Öz, G., Slotboom, J., Wilson, M., & Gasparovic, C. (2020). Preprocessing, analysis and quantification in single-voxel magnetic resonance spectroscopy: Experts’ consensus recommendations. NMR in Biomedicine, n/a(n/a), e4257. https://doi.org/10.1002/nbm.4257”
Or other papers that deal with this issue.
Note, if you are wanting to truly account for all relaxation effects, you also need to consider the T2 and T1 of the metabolites of interest.
Paul.
