MRI METHODOLOGY & SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
- Development, implementation and adaptation of the MR-sequences required for the variety of biological and medical research projects.
- Post processing of the MRI for the quantitative analysis of the functional, physiological and/or biological data.
- Development of dedicated MR RF probes.
- Maintenance of the different imaging systems (Biospec 9.4T, Pharmascan 7T, BLI-Biospace) and peripheral equipment (EEG, monitoring equipment).
