Assessment of Optimal T1/T2‐Weighted Combinations for Myelin Sensitivity: Effects of Echo Time and Exponents

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 6, Page 3176-3186, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose The aim of this study is to improve the traditional T1‐weighted (T1w) over T2‐weighted (T2w) ratio as a proxy for myelin by investigating the optimal T2w TE and combination of exponent‐weighted T1w and T2w images (T1wx1/T2wx2). Methods T1w and T2w Gradient And Spin Echo (GRASE) data were acquired from 14 volunteers, 6 of whom had a ...

Ex-vivo quantitative susceptibility mapping of human brain hemispheres.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Ex-vivo brain quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) allows investigation of brain characteristics at essentially the same point in time as histopathologic examination, and therefore has the potential to become an important tool for determining the ...

MRI-Based Quantification of Magnetic Susceptibility in Gel Phantoms: Assessment of Measurement and Calculation Accuracy

open access: yesRadiology Research and Practice, 2018
The local magnetic field inside and around an object in a magnetic resonance imaging unit depends on the magnetic susceptibility of the object being magnetized, in combination with its geometry/orientation.

Reducing Noise Induced by Cardiac Pulsatility in Brain Maps of R2* and Magnetic Susceptibility Using Tailored k‐space Sampling

open access: yesNMR in Biomedicine, Volume 39, Issue 6, June 2026.
With linear k‐space sampling trajectories, cardiac pulsation leads to MRI signal instabilities that increase the variability (standard deviation, SD) of R2* and QSM maps across repetitions. Here, we propose alternative trajectories that aim to mitigate the impact of cardiac‐induced noise in brain maps of R2* and QSM.

Bidirectional genetic and phenotypic links between smoking and striatal iron content involving dopaminergic and inflammatory pathways

open access: yesAddiction, Volume 121, Issue 6, Page 1580-1593, June 2026.
Abstract Background and aims Tobacco smoking is a major risk factor for cardiovascular and lung diseases. A better understanding of its neurobiological underpinnings will benefit the prevention of smoking‐related illnesses and mortality. Previous studies link smoking to increased iron concentration in the striatum, a central component of the brain's ...

Ultrashort Echo Time Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (UTE-QSM) of Highly Concentrated Magnetic Nanoparticles: A Comparison Study about Different Sampling Strategies

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
The ability to accurately and non-invasively quantify highly concentrated magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) is desirable for many emerging applications. Ultrashort echo time quantitative susceptibility mapping (UTE-QSM) has demonstrated the capability to ...

Co‐pathologies and biological processes beyond amyloid‐beta and tau in people with Alzheimer's disease: Evidence from clinical cohort studies

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, Volume 299, Issue 6, Page 694-710, June 2026.
Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) is neuropathologically defined by amyloid‐beta (Aβ) plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles. However, co‐pathologies and other pathobiological processes are involved in the pathogenesis of AD, contributing to neurodegeneration and clinical symptoms.

Relationship between tau-PET and quantitative susceptibility mapping in atypical Alzheimer’s disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience
BackgroundIron is an important component in neurofibrillary tangles, is known to co-localize with tangles in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and can be measured using quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM).
