Compressed sensing (CS) MP2RAGE versus standard MPRAGE: A of derived brain volume measurements

Tobias Kober, Tom Hilbert, Gian Franco Piredda

Purpose: T1 Magnetization Prepared Two Rapid Acquisition Gradient Echo (MP2RAGE) with compress sensing (CS) has been proposed as an improvement of the standard MPRAGE sequence with multiple advantages including reduced acquisition time needed to provide a ...

Measuring compartmental T-2-orientational dependence in human brain white matter using a tiltable RF coil and diffusion-T-2 correlation MRI

Muhamed Barakovic

The anisotropy of brain white matter microstructure manifests itself in orientational-dependence of various MRI contrasts, and can result in significant quantification biases if ignored. Understanding the origins of this orientation-dependence could enhanc ...

Test-retest variability of brain morphometry analysis: an investigation of sequence and coil effects

Bénédicte Marie Maréchal, Tobias Kober

Background: Precise and reliable brain morphometry analysis is critical for clinical and research purposes. The magnetization-prepared rapid gradient echo (MPRAGE), multi-echo MPRAGE (MEMPRAGE) and magnetization-prepared 2 rapid acquisition gradient echo ( ...

Default mode network and the timed up and go in MCI: A structural covariance analysis

Alessandra Griffa

Background: The timed up and go (TUG) is a test used to assess mobility in older adults and patients with neurological conditions. This study aims to compare brain gray matter (GM) correlates and structural covariance networks associated with the TUG time ...

Global tractography with embedded anatomical priors and microstructure information for quantitative connectomics

Alia Lemkaddem

Over the last decades new technologies have shed the light on an improved understanding of brain structure and function. Recently, an imaging modality referred to as diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging (dMRI) has emerged. By exploiting the natural motion ...

In Vivo Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) of the Activated Human Brain at 7T

Benoît Schaller

The principal aim of this thesis was to investigate human brain energy metabolism during physiological activation using proton (1H) magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) at 7 Tesla (T). High magnetic fields (≥ 7 T) provide several advantages in human brain ...

Brain decoding: Opportunities and challenges for pattern recognition

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

The neuroimaging community heavily relies on statistical inference to explain measured brain activity given the experimental paradigm. Undeniably, this method has led to many results, but it is limited by the richness of the generative models that are depl ...

Smaller Global and Regional Cortical Volume in Combat-Related Posttraumatic Stress Disorder

Marie Schaer

Context Two sets of findings predict smaller cerebral cortical gray matter volume in adult posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Measures of intracranial tissue volume and cerebral tissue volume have been observed to be smaller in adolescents with maltreat ...
