  • Arterial Spin Labeling: Quantitative non-invasive measurement of tissue perfusion using MRI

    Thu, Jun 22, 2006 @ 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM

    Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering

    Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars


    Speaker: Eric C. Wong, Ph.D. MD, Associate Professor of Radiology and Psychiatry, UCSD Center for Functional MRIAbstract:Arterial Spin Labeling is a class of MRI based methods to measure and image tissue perfusion. It is based on the idea of using arterial blood water as an endogenous tracer, with a tag that is generated by modulation of the longitudinal magnetization of that water using RF pulses. Tagging can be implemented as short adiabatic pulses, flow driven continuous adiabatic inversion, or velocity selective pulse trains. This presentation will focus on the development of tagging methodology, and current and potential applications of ASL.Bio:Eric C. Wong, PhD MD is a biophysicist working on the development of new hardware and imaging methods for MRI. His current areas of interest include: (1) Arterial Spin Labeling techniques for noninvasive measurement of tissue perfusion (2) High speed and high resolution imaging techniques, including spiral techniques and contrast optimization (3) Diffusion imaging (4) Local gradient coils (5) Application specific RF coils (6) Local shim coils.Host: Professor Krishna Nayak, x03494, knayak@sipi.usc.edu

    Location: Seaver Science Library (SSL) - 150
