31Phosphorus-NMR spectroscopy may have the potential to help in the noninvasive diagnosis of malignant hyperpyrexia (MH). Changes in the phosphate-metabolite profile of MH-susceptible (MHS) skeletal muscle occur more readily under conditions of anoxia than in control muscle. Induction of anoxia
Rhabdomyolysis is a disorder characterized by acute damage of the sarcolemma of the skeletal muscle leading to release of potentially toxic muscle cell components into the circulation, most notably creatine phosphokinase (CK) and myoglobin, and is frequently accompanied by myoglobinuria. Therefore,
BACKGROUND
