Summary

The main goal of the present study was to provide a technical basis for future studies assessing the role of cardiac lipids. More specifically, non-invasive MR-Spectroscopy (MRS) techniques will be used in this study to:

1. assess the methodological reproducibility of MRS-measurements of cardiac lipids in humans
2. investigate physiological variations of cardiac lipids by measuring day-to-day changes under identical conditions
3. determining diurnal variations of cardiac lipids in humans
