Researchers have found that the magnetic field of the MRI scanner decreased the BBB opening volume by 3.3-fold to 11.7-fold, depending on the strength of the magnetic field, in a mouse model.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) at ultrahigh magnetic fields in humans and animals is a uniquely important tool to advance the understanding of function and ...

As the push toward stronger and faster MRI scanners continues, so does concern over magnet safety, according to Filiz Yetisir, who discussed the potential effects MRI has on patients at the recent ...

Designated April 26, 2011, at Stony Brook University in Stony Brook, New York, and April 8, 2011, at Agilent Technologies in Santa Clara, California. MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) has become a ...

MRI-guided focused ultrasound combined with microbubbles can open the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and allow therapeutic drugs to reach the diseased brain location under the guidance of MRI. It is a ...
