Novel MRI Technique Can Help Diagnose Traumatic Brain Injuries
A new, advanced MRI technique that can help detect subtle Traumatic Brain Injuries has been developed by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology. Mild TBI is a common injury among war veterans and is difficult to diagnose and treat. TBI can result in symptoms such as memory loss or inability to concentrate. More...29 Mar 2015
Precancerous Breast Changes in Women with BRCA Gene Identified Using MR Spectroscopy
A Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy technique found multiple distinct premalignant changes in the biochemistry of breast tissue of women at high risk of breast cancer. The same changes were not recorded by conventional contrast-enhanced imaging 3-T Magnetic Resonance Imaging, and Ultrasound. More...09 Mar 2015
