Longitudinal Single-Center Study with Rapid Quantitative Assessment of Knee Joint with Compressed Sensing

This study uses compressive sensing (CS) techniques to accelerate knee MRI and track osteoarthritis (OA) progression by measuring T2 and T1rho relaxation times, enabling faster detection of cartilage degeneration and changes associated with advancing disease.

MSK   QUANTITATIVE MRI

Quantitative Methods for the Evaluation of Femoroacetabular Impingement Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging

This project aims to develop advanced, translation-ready quantitative MRI and radiomics methods to improve early diagnosis and evaluation of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), enabling more reliable and reproducible assessments than standard radiologic approaches.

MSK   QUANTITATIVE MRI   RADIOMICS

Noninvasive Estimation of Electrical Properties from Magnetic Resonance Measurements

This project develops a three-pronged strategy—combining global inverse modeling, physics-informed neural networks, and vision transformers—to generate high-resolution maps of tissue electrical properties using MRI, with broad applications in medical imaging and treatment.

QUANTITATIVE MRI   SIMULATIONS

Quantitative MRI of Skeletal Muscle Aging

This project develops and validates advanced quantitative MRI techniques to assess compositional and structural changes in skeletal muscles of older adults and determine how these changes predict future declines in muscle strength and function.

MSK   QUANTITATIVE MRI

Imaging of pain sources in myofascial pain syndrome

This project aims to develop PET and MRI techniques to identify novel imaging biomarkers of myofascial tissue damage and associated inflammatory mediators, providing objective measures of trigger points and the sources of pain to improve the diagnosis, characterization, and management of myofascial pain syndrome.
