Artifact Reduction and Image Processing
Description: Based on the understanding of MRI physics at ultra-high field strength, we developed method to uniquely estimate in-vivo transmit field and receive sensitivity occurring in the human brain and body. The outcome of these studies has been applied to correcting signal inhomogeneity. Furthermore, these studies will enable us to improve the performance of better image interpretation, such as brain segmentation.
