Non-ideal Selection Field Induced Artifacts in X-Space MPI

Ecrin Yagiz, Ahmet Rahmetullah Cagil, and Emine Ulku Saritas have published an article titled “Non-ideal Selection Field Induced Artifacts in X-Space MPI” in International Journal on Magnetic Particle Imaging. Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) is an emerging medical imaging modality that images the spatial distribution of superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanoparticles using their nonlinear response to […]

Accelerating the co-simulation method for the design of transmit array coils for MRI

A work from UMRAM focused on the fast methods for designing RF transmit array coils resulted in a manuscript entitled “Accelerating the co-simulation method for the design of transmit array coils for MRI.” In this study, the co-simulation method is considerably accelerated for the design of tramsnit array coils. As a proof of concept, an eight-channel degenerate […]

Distinct patterns of surround modulation in V1 and hMT+

Görkem Er, Zahide Pamir and Hüseyin Boyaci have published an article titled ”Distinct patterns of surround modulation in V1 and hMT+” in NeuroImage. Using fMRI and a well-studied motion paradigm, in which sensitivity to direction of motion increases (decreases) for a low (high) contrast stimulus as its size gets bigger, Er et al. show that […]
