The high-resolution images could provide insights into diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Researchers have unveiled images of the human brain from the world's most powerful MRI, which could ...

Fifty years on from American chemist Pal Laterbur detailing the first magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), scientists have marked this historic medical anniversary with the sharpest-ever scans of a mouse ...

Recent technological advances are allowing neuroscientists to map the human brain with increasing precision, highlighting connections between different regions and their function in greater depth.

Researchers using high-resolution brain scans are finding that when hearing starts to slip, the brain does not simply “turn ...

When UAB investigators are interested in carrying out state-of-the-art experiments and analyses to examine brain and body anatomy and function, they come to the Research MRI Core, one of 15 core ...

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of medicine's most powerful diagnostic tools. But certain tissues deep inside the body—including brain regions and delicate structures of the eye and orbit that ...

Brain aneurysms are potentially fatal and can be difficult to detect. Medical imagery such as MRIs and other tests involving contrast can help doctors determine the presence, location, and shape of ...

Rachel works as a CRNA where she provides anesthesia care across the lifespan, including pediatric anesthesia, with a primary focus on orthopedic anesthesia. She is also an Assistant Professor at the ...

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 ...

Most studies linking features in brain imaging to traits such as cognitive abilities are too small to be reliable, argues a controversial analysis. In 2019, neuroscientist Scott Marek was asked to ...
