Spatially Selective 2D RF Inner Field of View (iFOV) Diffusion Kurtosis Imaging (DKI) of the Pediatric Spinal Cord
Magnetic resonance based diffusion imaging has been gaining more utility and clinical relevance over the past decade. Using conventional echo planar techniques it is possible to acquire and characterize water diffusion within the central nervous system (CNS); namely in the form of Diffusion …

Magnetic Resonance imaging of tumour biomarkers in ovarian cancer
… the application of novel magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques to the evaluation of ovarian cancer. Diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI), sodium MRI, magnetization transfer (MT) imaging, hyperpolarized carbon-13 MRI and magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) were employed to image ovarian …

Advanced Methods for Diffusion MRI Data Analysis and their Application to the Healthy Ageing Brain
Diffusion of water molecules in biological tissues depends on several microstructural properties. Therefore, diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging (dMRI) is a useful tool to infer and study microstructural brain changes in the context of human development, ageing and neuropathology. In this thesis, …

Validation of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a tool to detect inflammation in the brain
… until 4h post-treatment. MRI techniques included diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), quantitative magnetization transfer (QMT), and magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI). EEGs were recorded at resting-state and during performance of an attention task. Vaccine administration induced an …
