Improving Imaging of the Spinal Cord with Molly Bright, DPhil
About this episode
Molly Bright discusses a novel fMRI technique developed to improve the assessment of blood flow in the spinal cord and its potential clinical applications.
A novel functional MRI (fMRI) technique has been developed by Northwestern Medicine investigators to more accurately assess blood flow in the spinal cord. In this episode, Molly Bright, DPhil , explains how his noninvasive method could one day help clinicians detect early signs of neurological disease or injury, monitor recovery and guide treatment decisions for patients with spinal cord conditions.
