Background: Owing to its role in glucose homeostasis, liver glycogen concentration ([LGly]) can be a marker of altered metabolism seen in disorders that impact the health of children. However, there is a paucity of normative data for this measure in... Read More about Liver glycogen stores via 13C magnetic resonance spectroscopy in healthy children: randomized, controlled study.
