Show affiliationsDevelopments in magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) at The Royal Marsden Hospital and The Institute of Cancer Research are reviewed in the context of preceding developments in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and MRS, and some of the early developments in this field, particularly those leading to human measurements. The early development of technology, and associated techniques for human measurement and assessment will be discussed, with particular reference to experience at out institutions. Applications using particular nuclei will then be described and related to other experimental work where appropriate. Contributions to the development of MRS that have been published in Physics in Medicine and Biology will be discussed.
