Doctors may use an MRI scan to detect a brain aneurysm in specific cases. MRI scans and other imaging techniques can help detect a brain aneurysm and reveal its shape and precise location. A brain ...

The world’s most powerful MRI machine has started proving its worth, by scanning living human brains. The resulting images give an ultra high resolution glimpse into the brain, which will help us ...

The brain MRI is important for the diagnosis of prion disease for ruling out other possible etiologies, but it can also show features suggestive of prion disease. Brain MRI findings are found in most ...

An intense international effort to improve the resolution of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for studying the human brain has culminated in an ultra-high resolution 7 Tesla scanner that records up to ...

Levels of iron in the brain could be a warning sign of future Alzheimer’s disease, a new study suggests. High levels of the chemical element have been shown to increase brain toxins and trigger ...

Illinois engineers fused ultrafast imaging with smart algorithms to peek at living brain chemistry, turning routine MRIs into metabolic microscopes. The system distinguishes healthy regions, grades ...

A study headed by Johns Hopkins University researchers has shown how an MRI technique that detects iron levels in different regions of the brain can predict the onset of mild cognitive impairment (MCI ...

Depression affects millions of people worldwide, but much is still unknown about this illness and treatments don't always work. Ph.D. candidate Jesper Pilmeyer examined patients' brains using MRI ...

Clogged brain drainage spaces visible on MRI scans may serve as early predictors of Alzheimer’s before major brain damage occurs. Researchers from, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have found that the ...
