Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is an important clinical imaging method for the diagnosis of diseases. Spectrum is used to observe the signal intensity of metabolites or further infer their concentrations. Although the magnetic resonance vendors commonly provide basic functions of spectra plots and metabolite quantification, the widespread clinical research of MRS is still limited due to the lack of easy-to-use processing software or platform. To address this issue, we have developed CloudBrain-MRS, a cloud-based online platform that provides powerful hardware and advanced algorithms. The platform can be accessed simply through a web browser, without requiring any program installation on the user side. CloudBrain-MRS also integrates the classic LCModel and advanced artificial intelligence algorithms and supports batch preprocessing, quantification, and analysis of MRS data. Additionally, the platform offers useful functions: 1) Automatically statistical analysis to find biomarkers from the health and patient groups; 2) Consistency verification between the classic and artificial intelligence quantification algorithms; 3) Colorful and three-dimensional visualization for the easy observation of individual metabolite spectrum. Last, both healthy and mild cognitive impairment patient data are used to demonstrate the usefulness of the platform. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first cloud computing platform for in vivo MRS with artificial intelligence processing. We sincerely hope that this platform will facilitate efficient clinical research for MRS. CloudBrain-MRS is open-accessed at
