Development of a new metabolic imaging technique for the human brain enabling simultaneous mapping of upfield and downfield peaks using 3T MRI systems, with open-source software for post-processing.
Description
This project aims to develop a novel metabolic imaging technique for the human brain called 'simultaneous upfield and downfield MR spectroscopic imaging' using commonly available 3T MRI systems. The methodology, including processing software, will be disseminated to the clinical neuroscience community for studying neurological and oncological diseases.
