Case: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) & Spectroscopy (MRS)

A 45-year-old male presents with persistent headaches and occasional dizziness. The neurologist suspects a neurological disorder and orders an MRI and MRS to assess potential biochemical changes in the brain. The hospital's upgraded PACS system will be used to store, retrieve, and analyze the imaging data.
