Use of MRS to Identify Chronic Injury Post-Stroke
This invention involves using magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) to identify lipid-laden foam cells to diagnose a chronic stroke injury. This technology is specifically meant for monitoring patients post-stroke brain injury. This largely relates to improving management patient care and advancing stroke therapeutics.
Background:
Currently, MRS...

Phase Change Nanodroplet - Liposome Conjugates for Enhanced Drug Delivery
This technology utilizes phase-change nanodroplet-liposome conjugates to achieve targeted drug delivery of oncology therapeutics. The technology uses ultrasound to convert the nanodroplet into a gas, whereby this cavitation of the nanoparticles cases stress on the tight junction areas of the brain. The cavitation will temporarily make the blood-brain...

Radial Fast Spin-Echo (FSE) MRI Pulse Sequence
This invention is a software method that combines radial imaging (taking MRI data radially--from the center, out) with fast spin-echo (FSE) imaging to create faster, more accurate images.
This technology has been demonstrated to effectively image human brains, abdominal regions, and livers.
Background:
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a very useful...
