简要总结
The project will use carbon-13 magnetic resonance spectroscopy to assess whether high glycogen levels in skeletal muscle of patients with Glycogen Storage Diseases is a prelude for muscle damage.
Patients with Glycogen Storage Diseases will be examined using carbon-13 MR-spectroscopy to quantify the glycogen levels in lumbar, thigh and calf-muscles. The pattern of glycogen concentration will be compared to the pattern of muscle atrophy found in the literature.
