Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Possibly repeated determination of the ethanol concentration in four regions of the human brain (frontal and occipital lobe, basal ganglia, cerebellum) by magnetic resonance spectroscopy after consumption of a certain amount of ethanol. Furthermore blood sampling for the determination of ethanol every 30 mins for 3 hours after drinking

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Ethanol concentrations in four regions of the brain that play an important role for the dysfunction caused by ethanol, furthermore comparison with blood ethanol concentrations.
