We are continuing the CRC 1436 Speaker Series with a lecture on “Translating MRI Methods for Perfusion and Anatomy from 3T and 7T into Clinical Applications.”
Professor Kamil Uludag from the University of Toronto (Canada) will be our guest on Monday, June 1st , 2026, at 1:00 p.m. in Building 64.
Guests are welcome!
This talk presents a translational framework bridging methodological developments in perfusion and structural MRI across 3T and 7T, with applications in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, as well as brain tumors. At 3T, we have developed and validated advanced perfusion approaches, including multi-echo DSC and hybrid acquisitions, alongside quantitative structural imaging methods sensitive to tissue microstructure. Together, these techniques enable more robust and biologically specific characterization of vascular and anatomical changes, with demonstrated clinical utility – for example, in assessing tumor heterogeneity and treatment response, as well as in evaluating targeted neuromodulation and blood–brain barrier modulation following MR-guided focused ultrasound.
