New scanners: hardware, acquisition and data reconstruction
The University of Nottingham has a long history of developing MRI acquisition and analysis methods, and hardware.
Research
Currently we are working on:
- MEG systems including OPM MEG
- Generating MR images (e.g., k-space sampling strategies, image reconstruction algorithms, RF and gradient hardware, safety
- MR spectroscopy methods: methods for measuring metabolites including MN and related hardware
- Image processing: methods for improving image quality, performing quality control and processing images (e.g., registration, segmentation, distortion correction, volume measurements)
- Modelling & Quantification: manipulating contrast and modelling data to measure biophysical quantities (including diffusion, ASL, CEST, BOLD, motion etc)
