For decades, MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) has been a powerful way to see inside the human brain. A specialized form, diffusion-weighted MRI (dMRI), can measure tissue properties of fiber pathways ...

In a new study published recently in the journal Nature, researchers at Vanderbilt University and Vanderbilt Health have created the first growth charts for white matter in the brain over a human ...

What is diffusion tensor imaging? Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a relatively new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique designed to estimate the axonal organization of the brain via ...

Oxford Brain Diagnostics (OBD), a leader in MRI-based measurement of brain health and neurodegenerative disease, today announced the presentation of five new studies at the Alzheimer's Association ...

The brain MRI is important for the diagnosis of prion disease for ruling out other possible etiologies, but it can also show features suggestive of prion disease. Brain MRI findings are found in most ...

Congyu Liao, PhD, began his studies in geoscience, learning the physics of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and electronics instrumentation, and applying those principles to detect and characterize ...
