Researchers in Boston are set to co-lead a long-term study on the aging brain and factors that make individuals more vulnerable to neural injury and cognitive decline.
The team’s work will emphasize the role of specialized MRI techniques capable of detecting subtle changes around tumors with the help of pH-based imaging.
Using a virtual reality headset, the system, dubbed AR-VIU (augmented real-time volumetric imaging in ultrasound), creates a 3D rendering of anatomy based on 2D ultrasound images.

Armed with an advanced 7T MRI and one very committed graduate student, researchers are gaining new insight into how sleep patterns affect brain health.
