Structural and functional MRI reveals multiple retinal layers.
MRI is a noninvasive diagnostic modality that reveals anatomy, physiology, and function in vivo without depth limitation or optical interference. MRI application to the retina, however, remains challenging. We improved spatial resolution to resolve layer-specific structure and functional responses in the retina and confirmed the laminar resolution in an established animal model of retinal degen...
متن کاملManganese-enhanced MRI reveals multiple cellular and vascular layers in normal and degenerated retinas.
PURPOSE To use manganese-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MEMRI) at 25 × 25 × 800 μm(3) to image different retinal and vascular layers in the rat retinas. MATERIALS AND METHODS Manganese-chloride was injected intraocularly in normal (n = 5) and Royal College of Surgeons (RCS, an model of photoreceptor degeneration) (n = 5) rats at postnatal day 90. MEMRI at 4.7 T was performed 24 hours la...
متن کاملIntegration of Functional MRI, Structural MRI, EEG, and MEG
The combination of functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) with Electroencephalography (EEG) and Magnetoencephalography (MEG) source reconstruction techniques promises to add temporal resolution in the [ms] range to fMRI activation maps. Depending on the available information, different co-registration methods for merging structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging (sMRI) and fMRI coordinate sys...
متن کاملManganese-enhanced MRI reveals structural and functional changes in the cortex of Bassoon mutant mice.
Manganese-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (ME-MRI) was used to analyze the brain architecture in mice lacking the functional presynaptic active zone protein Bassoon. Anatomical characterization revealed a significant increase in the total brain volume in Bassoon mutants as compared with wild-type mice, which is mainly caused by changes in cortex and hippocampus volume. The measured enlargem...
متن کاملStructural Changes in Individual Retinal Layers in Diabetic Macular Edema
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has enabled objective measurement of the total retinal thickness in diabetic macular edema (DME). The central retinal thickness is correlated modestly with visual impairment and changes paradoxically after treatments compared to the visual acuity. This suggests the clinical relevance of the central retinal thickness in DME and the presence of other factors tha...
