MORNING CATEGORICAL COURSE
The Nano-Meter Film: How MRS and MRI Can Probe Tissue Microstructure

Room C106
07:00 – 08:00

Chairs: Chris Boesch and R. Mark Henkelman

Educational Objectives

Upon completion of this course, participants should be able to:

  • Describe methods in MRS and MRI that allow studies of tissue ultra-structure;
  • Identify areas in which MR can contribute to the knowledge of tissue organization;
  • Evaluate potential applications and limitations of MR methods to study compartmentation, order, and transport processes in vivo;
  • Generate an overview of advanced methods in MRS and MRI that give information on the nanometer scale;
  • Explain the influence of tissue structure upon MR parameters

    The final five minutes of each talk will be set aside for questions.
07:00   Relaxation Times and Nano-Structures, Peter S. Allen.

 

07:30   Multiquantum Filters and Order in Tissue, Gil Navon.
08:00   Adjournment.
