Korea's 7T MRI Research Unravels Depression Mysteries
Measuring taurine concentrations in the hippocampus posed technical challenges due to its location and low concentration compared to other metabolites.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an imaging technique used to visualize the structure and parts of body and their function. It produces detailed images of the body using a powerful magnetic field, radio waves and a computer. 2D and 3D images can be acquired with the technique, with or without the use a contrast material to highlight the body parts. The radio waves sent and received in the strong magnetic field produce signals which are processed by a computer to generate a series of virtual ‘slices’ (two-dimensional cross-sectional images) of the body.
MRI does not use ionizing radiation (x-rays) and is generally a safe, non-invasive and painless procedure with almost no risks. Implanted metal or electronic medical devices may malfunction during an MRI exam. This imaging technique is widely used in diagnosing diseases, staging them and to monitor their progress. It helps evaluate abnormalities of the brain, neck, spine, joints, blood vessels, organs of the chest and abdomen like heart, liver, kidneys, etc.

These tests help in diagnosing a disease in a clearer and better way.
X rays, CT and PET CT scans during pregnancy may harm the developing fetus. Get to know the pros and cons of imaging tests during pregnancy.
Though these imaging tests might overlap in their functions but differ in the substances they might use or in the degree of resolution
If the machine is narrow, it can feel like being stuck in a narrow tube with loud sounds bashing your ears. Know how to deal with it
This new toll can detect abnormalities in focal cortical dysplasia (FCDs), which are a leading cause of drug-resistant epilepsy.
Researchers suggested that multiparametric ultrasound (mpUSS) can used as a first test for prostate cancer in areas where people do not have easy access to high quality MRI scans.
Using a combination of MRI and a standard prostate biopsy is significantly more likely to detect the most aggressive prostate cancers.
MRI is a common technique used to obtain images of human internal organs and tissues. The study findings will help shed light on various aspects of cognitive, social, emotional and physical development of adolescents.
For the first time ever a group of researchers used ensemble methods based on deep learning 3D networks to deal with international MRI-based adolescent intelligence prediction task.
According to a study published in the 'Stroke: Journal of the American Heart Association'.
A new study published in the journal IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging has developed a new artificial intelligence system called FocalNet, that can help better diagnose prostate cancer.
According to a new study published in the The Lancet Oncology, new AI-based method can help in individualised treatment of brain tumours.
It is common for most doctors to advise imaging tests like MRI or X-ray to determine the cause of back pain.
Regular aerobic exercise can help in improving thinking skills not only in older people but in young people as well, a recent study suggests.
Artificial intelligence can help in reducing the time required to process abnormal chest X-rays.
The new computer model will make assessments based on tumor tissue characteristics captured by a medical imaging technique.
A new research published in the published in the journal Psychological Science has revealed that an increase in brain volume contributes very little to a person's intelligence and educational attainment.
