Description:
UBC MRI Research hosts a wide range of human and preclinical in vivo imaging as well as develops novel MRI techniques. Our facilities consist of a Philips 3.0 Tesla MRI scanner for studies on humans, a Bruker small bore 9.4 Tesla MRI scanner, and a computing facility for image archival and analysis. The two scanners are entirely dedicated to research, and MR scanning is carried out on a cost recovery basis. The scanners were selected to cater to a very broad range of in vivo applications and the Imaging Centre staff is trained to support any research projects that the scanners can accommodate.
