SUMMARY:Microstructure of the human brain investigated by quantitative MRI 
 in vivo and validation through multi-modal imaging ex vivo
DESCRIPTION:AbstractOur ability to characterize the microstructure of brain
  tissue in both healthy and diseased individuals is enhanced by the availa
 bility of quantitative MRI techniques with high spatial resolution. For va
 lidation\, we use ex vivo brain tissue under conditions optimized for MRI 
 at ultra-high magnetic field strengths of 9.4–14.1 T\, in combination wi
 th μCT and histology. Such approaches can improve image interpretation an
 d lead to new MRI techniques for clinical use.\\r\\n\\r\\nBiosketchGisela
