Objective To observe imaging characteristics and changes of vivo two-dimension multi-voxel proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (~1H-MRS) in the rabbit models of VX2 hepatic carcinoma after high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment. Methods VX2 hepatic carcinoma models were established in 20 New Zealand rabbits. Routine MR and 2-dimentional ~1H-MRS scanning were performed before and after HIFU treatment. The central regions of interest (ROI) of the VX2 tumor, tumor border and paratumor normal liver tissues were selected. The Cho/Cr and Lip/Cr of the same ROI before and after HIFU treatment were compared. Results Total 28 satisfied spectrogram diagram of ~1H-MRS were brought into statistical analysis. Of all the spectra, 6 metabolite peaks were detected as lipids (Lip), glutamine and glutamate complex (Glx), choline (Cho), lactate (Lac) and creatine (Cr). Cho and Lac peak in tumor center and tumor border regions after HIFU treatment were higher than those before HIFU treatment. Lip peak was lower than before, and major metabolites of paratumor normal liver tissues did not changed significantly. Statistical differences of Cho/Cr and Lipid/Cr of tumor center and border region were found between before and after HIFU treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion Two-dimension multi-voxel ~1H-MRS can reflect major changes in the level of metabolites of different ROI for hepatic VX2 carcinoma after HIFU treatment.
