Just a few days after the crime – that is usually how long signs of strangulation can be detected. But research by @claudialenz.bsky.social shows that this timeframe needs to be reconsidered: internal injuries can be detected with MRI for much longer than previously thought – up to 12 days.

Published in the current issue of Radiology accompanied by an editorial highlighting its clinical relevance: Christina Graf’s new paradigm of RF pulse design applied to T2-weighted FLAIR. We’ll build on this and translate the new pulse paradigm to other MRI sequences.

It was a great experience and fun to give a talk on Can we measure extreme brain iron content with Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping? at #ECR2025 in Vienna! I am grateful to share my research and connect with colleagues passionate about advancing neuroimaging. #PlanetRadiology #MRI #BrainHealth

Thanks to the #schrödingerstipendium, I had the incredible opportunity to gain valuable experience at the #UBC (@rauschermri.bsky.social), to broaden my perspectives, and to expand my scientific network. It was truly a stepping stone for my career, and I am grateful for this unique opportunity!
