As a man now in the ‘second half’, I am doubly interested in this topic now Having read Chris Hoy’s incredible book over Christmas, it reassured me that we’re doing, & what we could be doing, with MRI is so important Anyway, kudos to Malwina, Filip & Fabrizio. Always a pleasure to work with them 👇🏻

#MRI of the #Prostate: The Promise of Ultra-Strong Gradients and Advanced Microstructural Imaging by Dr Molendowska, @deekayjay.bsky.social, et al (Lund University & CUBRIC) Learn more marketing.webassets.siemens-healthineers.com/f0c8b5c08fab... #dMRI #DWI #Microstructure @tomhilbertmri.bsky.social

Extending conventional DWI to include advanced diffusion encoding and image readouts brings the field closer to realizing the promise of a “virtual microscope.” These advancements rely on high-performance MRI systems, with particular emphasis on the gradient system. Importantly, a vast majority of advanced DWI methods gain marked improvement in data quality from ultra- strong gradients and more efficient readout strategies, and the exploration of biomarkers can be extended to include experimental designs that were previously either too slow or yielded insufficient SNR. Such developments are particularly promising for prostate imaging, offering high-fidelity high-resolution images that reflect ever more subtle features of tissue microstructure—enhancing detection, diagnostics, and treatment monitoring. The authors present early insights into the novel information made accessible by new hardware, and how this drives further development in the context of prostate cancer imaging. As powerful MRI systems become commercially available worldwide, strong-gradient technology will facilitate new imaging biomarkers, likely playing a fundamental role in everyday clinical diagnosis and advancement of individualized precision medicine.

Check out the newest paper from from Anders Sandgaard on Larmor frequency shifts in axons analyticalsciencejournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Predicting Mesoscopic Larmor Frequency Shifts in White Matter With Diffusion MRI—A Monte Carlo Study in Axonal Phantoms

We aim to validate if MRI measures anisotropic mesoscopic Larmor frequency shifts from white matter axonal microstructure relative to B0 and if dMRI estimates this anisotropy. Recent models describe ...

A fantastic meeting this week between CUBRIC & the Siemens Healthineers Swiss Innovation Hub as part of the Cardiff University / Siemens Healthineers Strategic Partnership. Way more collaborative ideas than we have time for! Thanks Tom Hilbert, Gian Franco Piredda & Tommaso Di Noto for coming!

First post, & first New Year's resolution kept! I've just left X (read why there, but I guess, if you're here, you have the same issues☹️) I hope that this space will become, (& remain!) the collegiate space we need to keep up with everyone's work, developments, GOOD news & so on Happy new year all!
