Award for research on developing advanced MR thermometry techniques to measure brain temperature non-invasively, improving diagnosis and treatment of cerebral hyperthermia after brain injury.
Description
This project aims to develop novel multinuclear thermometry approaches for non-invasive, accurate cerebral thermometry using Magnetic Resonance (MR) thermometry to detect and characterize ischemic cerebral hyperthermia. It addresses the need for prognostic biomarkers and treatment targets for dangerous cerebral hyperthermia following brain injury, which is a significant factor in stroke progression and brain ischemia outcomes.
