An iPRES-W Coil Array for Simultaneous Imaging and Wireless Localized B₀ Shimming of the Cervical Spinal Cord
BIAC researchers led by Jonathan Cuthbertson, Trong-Kha Truong, and Dean Darnell from the MR Engineering Lab have developed a wireless integrated parallel reception, excitation, and shimming (iPRES-W) coil array for simultaneous imaging and wireless localized B0 shimming of the spinal cord.
Assessment of brain age in posttraumatic stress disorder: Findings from the ENIGMA PTSD and brain age working groups
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with markers of accelerated aging. Estimates of brain age, compared to chronological age, may clarify the effects of PTSD on the brain and may inform treatment approaches targeting the neurobiology of aging in the context of PTSD.
