Novel MRI Approach Helps Diagnose Alzheimer’s Before Symptoms Develop
An MRI scan of the hippocampus, the brain’s memory center, in an older person with no signs of cognitive decline and a person of similar age with mild Alzheimer’s has been analyzed with a new technique that shows where healthy brain cells have been lost. This novel MRI approach can identify brain cell damage in people at early stages of Alzheimer’s, before tissue shrinkage is visible on traditional MRI scans. More...07 Mar 2022
AI Tool Enables Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (TSA) Planning Through MRI Scan
A new tool for Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (TSA) planning performs segmentation of the shoulder bones from shoulder MRI scan, which is usually performed in shoulder healthcare. The segmentation output undergoes super-resolution enhancement to overcome inherent MRI resolution limitations. The end-result is a high-quality, 3D model of the shoulder bones, which allows exceptional planning for TSA, without the need for a CT scan for planning. More...04 Mar 2022

MRI May Halve Breast-Cancer Mortality Among Women Carrying Variants in Three Genes
Annual MRI screenings starting at ages 30 to 35 may reduce breast-cancer mortality by more than 50% among women who carry certain genetic changes in three genes, according to a new comparative modeling analysis. More...04 Mar 2022


MRI-Guided Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer Cuts Treatment Side Effects by 50%
An interim analysis of an ongoing Phase III study indicates that using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to guide precisely-focused high-dose radiation treatment for prostate cancer reduced side effects associated with the treatment. More...17 Feb 2022

New MRI Technique Simultaneously Measures Cerebral Blood Flow and Blood Oxygenation Levels for Studying Alzheimer’s Disease
To better understand early stages of Alzheimer's, investigators will use a new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique developed by Deqiang Qiu’s lab that simultaneously measures cerebral blood flow and blood oxygenation levels. More...15 Feb 2022
