Research lines

Synthetic Imaging: Assessing its value in healthcare practice

The aim of the line is to evaluate synthetic MR images compared to conventional images to consider its use in healthcare protocols.

IP: Fco. Javier Aymerich Martínez, Alex Rovira Cañellas

Advanced quantitative techniques of MR Imaging in the assessment of neurological and neurooncological diseases

The objective of the line is to evaluate the added value of the information provided by quantitative MR techniques, mainly T1 and T2 relaxometry, as well as chemical exchange saturation transfer imaging (CEST) to the study of neurological and neuro-oncological diseases.

Application of MRI imaging to the study of Parkinson's disease

The aim of the line is to evaluate the added value of the information provided by MRI techniques, mainly aimed at the evaluation of melanin, myelin, presence of Fe, structural and functional connectivity in the study of Parkinson’s disease.

Quantitative analysis of MR images: image analysis and software development

This line is focused on the analysis of magnetic resonance images for quantification purposes. To do it, we combine the use of tools designed for this purpose with software specifically designed for this purpose in our group. The work of this line is the result of the application of computer vision techniques, image processing, pattern recognition and fuzzy logic to the analysis of magnetic resonance images. Some areas of interest are the measurement of lesion features, and the quantification of iron in SWI weighted images.
