ETH Zurich researchers have developed a new method of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the early detection and better monitoring of multiple sclerosis (MS). The method maps the myelin sheaths in ...

GW Hospital is proud to be the first adult-care hospital in the metropolitan Washington–Northern Virginia region to add MRI-guided focused ultrasound to its intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging ...

Epilepsy is a neurological condition characterised by episodes of abnormal electrical activity in the brain (recurrent seizures). The seizures can be focal or generalised. The main treatment for ...

Parkinson's is a progressive neurodegenerative condition that damages the brain over many years. It is caused by a loss of the cells in the brain that produce dopamine, which helps to control and ...

A new way of imaging the brain with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) does not directly detect neural activity as originally reported, according to scientists at MIT’s McGovern Institute. The method, ...

A medical innovation that has significantly advanced medical treatments, magnetic resonance imaging has helped doctors see inside the body. MRI scans are a non-invasive and relatively safe procedure.

MRI is a diagnostic test that doctors use to diagnose and track the progress of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). ALS is a progressive disease that damages nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord.
