Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays a critical role in diagnosis and staging of various pathologies. Traditional MRI techniques rely on a set of contrast-weighted images, which limit their capability to provide a more comprehensive assessment for clinical diagnosis and treatment monitoring. Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (MRF) is an advanced quantitative MRI method, which can provide rapid and accurate quantification of multiple tissue properties. My research focuses on developing and translating the MRF technique for body imaging. The developed methods have demonstrated superior performance in both repeatability and reproducibility compared to existing quantitative MRI methods. In this presentation, I will introduce recent technical advances in MRF, followed by findings from multiple clinical studies.
