Abdominal Imaging

MRI is an ideal tool for physiological experiments as it can provide a wide range of relevant quantitative information non-invasively. The purpose of this user group is to support investigators wishing to use MRI to address physiology and pathology research questions relating to the human abdominal region. For example:

  • gut
  • liver
  • kidney
  • the Fetus and Placenta
