Congratulations to Bianca Reithmeier and co-authors on the recently published article "Relevance of lesion size in navigator-triggered and free-breathing diffusion-weighted liver MRI"! This study investigated the effectiveness of navigator-triggered (TRIG) versus free-breathing (FB) diffusion-wei...

This year's retreat of the six MR research groups of the University Hospital took place on 26 and 27 June. The two-day meeting provided a platform for exchange between scientists, alumni and students to present and discuss the latest developments and research projects in the field of MRI. ...

Congratulations to Mona Pistel and co-authors on the recently published article "Stability of Radiomic Features against Variations in Lesion Segmentations Computed on Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Maps of Breast Lesions"! Diffusion-weighted imaging combined with radiomics can help differentiate ...

Congratulations to Nico Egger and co-authors on the recently published article "Accelerated B1+ mapping and robust parallel transmit pulse design for heart and prostate imaging at 7T"! In this publication, the performance of universal parallel transmit (pTx) pulses for prostate and heart imaging ...

Congratulations to Tamara Bäuchle, Christoph Stuprich and co-authors on the published paper ‘Influence of Magnetic Field Strength on Intravoxel Incoherent Motion Parameters in Diffusion MRI of the Calf’. The study investigated the dependence of the measured IVIM parameters in the human calf on ma...

Congratulations to Christoph Stuprich and colleagues on the recently published paper "Velocity-compensated intravoxel incoherent motion of the human calf muscle"! The aim of the study was to determine whether intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) better describes blood perfusion in muscles when pse...

At this year's spring conference of the German Physical Society (DPG) in Berlin, the Radiation and Medical Physics Association once again awarded a prize for the best presentations. Second place, worth €100, went to Mona Pistel from the qMRI lab (Laun). In her presentation, Mona focussed on how d...

In this paper (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/mrm.30055) Jonathan Endres and Co-Authors present an analytical Bloch simulation approach for arbitrary MRI sequence simulation called Phase Distribution Graphs. It is a general implementation of the Extended Phase Graph (EPG) concept, ...

Congratulations to Christian Eisen (and colleagues) on the recently published paper "Fast online spectral-spatial pulse design for subject-specific fat saturation in cervical spine and foot imaging at 1.5 T"! A new fat saturation method for MRI is presented, which aims to ensure a more reliable a...

Congratulations to Moritz Fabian (and colleagues) on the recently published paper "Comprehensive 7 T CEST: A clinical MRI protocol covering multiple exchange rate regimes"! A comprehensive CEST protocol covering three different B1 amplitude regimes was developed for clinical 7T MRI. Acquisition t...
