MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING

This study looked at whether advanced high-resolution MRI can help doctors more accurately diagnose the cause of optic disc swelling (a sign of various eye or brain conditions). Researchers tested the new MRI technique on 197 adults with optic disc edema to see if it improved dia…

This study used MRI scans to measure how the brain moves inside the skull during gentle head motions, like turning your head. Researchers studied 90 healthy adults aged 18-65 to create a database of normal brain movement. The goal was to develop a new imaging method that could he…

This study tested whether a special MRI (4D flow) can accurately measure blood pressure in the lungs without the need for a heart catheter, which carries small risks. Twenty-eight adults with pulmonary hypertension had both tests and an ultrasound, and researchers compared the re…

This study looked at 164 children aged 4 to 16 with cleft palate who had speech problems. Researchers used brain scans to see how speech therapy changes brain connections and structure. The goal was to understand why therapy works and how to improve it.

This study looked at whether a special type of MRI scan, called IVIM, can help predict how well people recover three months after a stroke. Researchers scanned 274 adults who had a stroke and compared the scan results to their recovery scores. The goal was to see if the scan coul…

This study tested two different MRI techniques to see which one better detects active brain lesions in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). 180 adults with MS or similar conditions had brain scans after a recent symptom flare-up. The goal was to find the most sensitive method for…

This study looked at MRI scans of the jaw joint (TMJ) in 282 people to find disc perforations (holes in the cushion between bones). Researchers checked how these holes relate to pain, disc shape, and bone changes. The goal was to better understand and diagnose this condition, not…

This study looked at 63 people who had a sudden loss of vision from a blocked artery in the eye (called CRAO). Researchers used advanced MRI scans to find signs of the blockage and related problems in the brain. The goal was to improve diagnosis and predict how well vision might …

This study looked at how children (ages 9-13) and adults (18-50) build muscle after 12 weeks of leg exercises using either traditional weight stacks or flywheel machines. 91 healthy participants were randomly assigned to exercise or a control group. Researchers measured muscle gr…

This study tested a new heart MRI method that uses artificial intelligence to create clear images while patients breathe normally, instead of holding their breath. It involved 54 adults with ischemic heart disease. The goal was to see if this AI-based approach measures heart func…

This study looked at how body temperature changes in 285 children having an MRI scan under sedation. Researchers measured temperature before and after the scan to see what factors might cause changes. The goal was to better understand these temperature shifts to improve safety an…

This study tested a new 4D MRI technique to measure blood flow in the liver's blood vessels. 44 adults who had fasted for 6 hours took part. The goal was to see if the method gives consistent results compared to standard 2D flow measurements. This is a knowledge-gathering study, …
