10.5 T In Vivo Head Imaging With Universal RF Shimming
Purpose Brain MR imaging at 10.5 T ultra-high field offers significant improvements in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), but faces challenges with B1+ inhomogeneity. Parallel-transmission (pTx) can be us...

I'm excited to share our latest work comparing proton MRS data acquired at 3 T and 7 T from the hypothalamus and prefrontal cortex in individuals with Type 1 diabetes.

I just started a new position as a scientist at the Henry Jackson Foundation, supporting traumatic brain injury research at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda, MD.

Fingers Crossed!

During a pulse sequence test at 7T, which happened to be the subject's 1st-ever MR scan, I discovered an anomaly in their brain. A neurorad reviewed and confirmed it, requiring a separate follow-up. This is the 2nd time this has happened in the last 3 months! I hate being the bearer of bad news.

Hi! I’m an engineer/scientist working on giant MRI machines to study human brains and few other bits.

Just joined this place a couple of days ago, and so far I like it. Feels like the early days that other place.
