MRE Sequences + Reconstruction

We develop sequences for performing brain MRE developed by the lab for use on Siemens scanners. We currently support:

  • Spin-echo, echoplanar imaging (EPI) MRE

  • 2D multishot spiral MRE

  • 3D multishot spiral MRE with multiband excitation

If you are interested in collaborating on brain MRE sequences please contact Dr. Curtis Johnson (clj@udel.edu)
