Measuring qMRI water content in the brain just got more flexible! 🧠
doi.org/10.1002/mrm....

Following a great discussion with @josepmarques.bsky.social, we asked together: can MP2RAGE map water fraction like VFA?
Mapping a reproducible water fraction and T1 using MP2RAGE and variable flip angle quantitative MRI protocols
Purpose Water fraction (WF) estimation, a form of quantitative MRI mapping, is typically performed using the variable flip angle (VFA) approach. In this study, WF estimation was extended to include ...

In the past year and a half, we have been intensively protesting and fighting the Israeli government in an attempt to stop the war, secure the release of all hostages, and prevent the ongoing humanitarian crisis. Until now, our protests have primarily been focused internally.

1/ I’m thrilled to share our new MRI study by Shachar Moskovich! We propose a method to approximate quantitative MRI (qMRI) parameters (R1 & R2) using widely available clinical and large-scale datasets, leveraging weighted MRI images like T1w, T2w, & PDw. doi.org/10.1002/hbm....
Approximating R1 and R2: A Quantitative Approach to Clinical Weighted MRI
Weighted MRI images, commonly used in clinical and neuroimaging databases, lack microstructural information. Our study test new quantifiers, combining T1w, T2w, and PDw images, to approximate qMRI pa...
