    University essay from

    Author : Frida Johansson; [2022-01-13]
    Keywords : Medical physics; Anatomical segmentation; Brain; MRI; 7 Tesla; Pincram; MAPER; Shape based averaging; Ultrahigh resolution;

    Abstract : Purpose: The purpose of this work was to find out how the existing brain atlases and segmentation algorithms perform when applied to ultrahigh-resolution MR brain images, acquired with a 7-Tesla scanner. Also to make adaptations to deal with the potential challenges and evaluate the quality of the anatomical segmentations of the 7- Tesla images. READ MORE

  2. 2. Functional connectivity analysis in the human brain using ultra-high field MRI

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i bioinformatik

    Author : Theodor Rumetshofer; [2021]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Introduction: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive method which uses a combination of a strong magnetic field and radio frequency pulses to image magnetic difference between oxygenated and deoxygenated blood in the human brain. This contrast differences can be used to identify areas in the brain when subjects performing an active task in the MRI scanner. READ MORE

  3. 3. In vivo knee cartilage quality assessment by direct quantification of glycosaminoglycans through chemical exchange saturation transfer (gagCEST)

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Author : Simon Kindvall; [2012]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Introduction: Non-invasive imaging of human articular cartilage is an important tool in understanding, and thus allowing the development of effective treatments for, osteoarthritis; a disease responsible of impaired movement of millions of otherwise healthy individuals. Glycosaminoglycans (GAG) have been attributed with important biomechanical properties, vital for the function of the articular cartilage. READ MORE
