The Possible Role of Glow Sticks—Yes, Glow Sticks—in Treating Alzheimer’s
A new imaging probe was inspired by the chemistry of the novelty light source.
Nutrition and Brain Growth in the Developing World
Researchers are using advanced optical imaging technology to study the relationship between the two.
Uncovering ‘Covert Consciousness’ in Brain Injury Patients
Using fMRI and EEG, Martinos Center researchers found evidence of consciousness in patients who cannot otherwise respond to commands.
MGH Launches the Center for Precision Imaging
Martinos Center investigator Umar Mahmood will lead the new effort.
Nanodiamond-enhanced MRI: A Dazzling New Approach to Imaging
Use of nanodiamonds with ultra-low-field MRI suggests a range of diagnostic and therapeutic applications.
The Neuroscience of Personal Space
A study of the brain mechanisms associated with the regulation of personal space has led to deeper understandings of social dysfunction in schizophrenia – and pointed toward possible new treatments.
With New PET Probe, Researchers Image Fibrosis of the Lungs
Pauline Désogère and colleagues described the probe in a Science Translational Medicine paper published online today.
New Software Improves Ability to Determine the Cause of Stroke
A study validating the software – called Causative Classification of Stroke (CCS) – was published online in JAMA Neurology.
Acupuncture Yields Improved Outcomes in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
The practice works by remapping areas of the brain, according to a new study by Vitaly Napadow and colleagues.
The First In Vivo Imaging Agent for Electrical Signaling in the Heart
A new PET radiotracer could enable early detection of the risk of heart failure or cardiac arrhythmia, and thus help to save more lives.
Moving Beyond Biopsy for Liver Fibrosis
We checked in with the Center’s Bo Zhu about a new, noninvasive method for detecting and staging the disease.
The Radiochemistry Team, and Everything That Doesn’t Go Wrong
The Center produced 277 nuclear reactions last year and you didn’t hear about any of them. Here’s why.
Translational Research Award Goes to Optics Division Investigator
Parisa Farzam accepted the award for her work with a blood flow monitor that could transform the ways we manage TBI and other neurological conditions.
Novel PET Radiotracer Offers Possible ‘Smell Test’ for Dementia
We know that how well we can smell is a reliable marker of brain health. Now we have a better way to measure this, and maybe to diagnose dementia in its early stages.
Ken Kwong and the Introduction of Noninvasive fMRI
In the early months of 1992 the neuroscience community was flush with excitement. Jack Belliveau, a graduate student with the MGH-NMR Center (now the MGH Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging), had recently published in Science his…
