Image Reconstruction Technique Provides Unprecedented View of Swallowing and Speech

MRI provides several imaging contrasts to study the dynamic muscle movements and functional neural control of speech and swallowing. Leveraging a recently developed low rank imaging approach called partial separability, Dr. Brad Sutton from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign was able to achieve 150 frames per second and provide 3D dynamic imaging of the […]

Molecular Imaging Pushes Boundaries of Personalized Medicine

Researchers at the Gordon Center for Medical Imaging are using molecular imaging and nuclear medicine technology to push the boundaries of personalized medicine. We talked to Dr. Rachid Akiki, MD, who is working closely with Dr. Marc Normandin, PhD, in the Gordon Center of the Radiology Department, to find out how. What is molecular imaging? […]
