Abstract
We present a method for the direct correlation of quantitative changes in lactate concentration and intracellular pH during global ischemia in the perfused rat heart using rapidly interleaved P-31 MRS and water -suppressed H-1 MRS acquisitions. The ischemic myocardial buffering ca pacity was determined and found to be consistent with previous experim entation.
