Title: Application Development for MR Spectroscopy & Multi‐parameter MRI
Host: Sam Grant
Abstract: MR Spectroscopy (MRS) and multi‐parameter MRI are versatile tools that can provide valuable insights in the investigation and characterization of a number of pathologies, including diabetes and chronic pain caused by myofascial dysfunction.
In this talk, I’d like to highlight some of my recent work in three areas: the use of dynamic 31P exercise MRS and MRI to investigate bioenergetics, assessment of metabolites using 1H MRS in a preclinical model of diabetes, and development of MR fingerprinting techniques to investigate myofascial dysfunction.
