Cardiovascular Magnetic ResonanceOpen OpportunitiesThis project aims to investigate spin-locking in magnetization-prepared MR Relaxometry. Specifically designed RF pulses lock the magnetization in the transverse plane and allow for the measurement of effective relaxation constants, T1rho and T2rho, which can reveal chemical exchange of protons between different pools and serve as biomarkers for diseases.
We will explore different spin-locking RF pulses, investigate their limits through numerical simulations and phantom experiments, and study in-vivo application of T1rho mapping and dispersion quantification. - Biomedical Engineering

| Pulse oximetry during Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) helps to monitor the well-being of the patients and to obtain information about their physiology. However, the standard oximetry finger clip complicates the process and therefore it is the aim of the project to build a contactless pulse oximeter that can be integrated into a novel low-field MRI scanner. To this end, an MRI compatible camera will be deployed to illuminate the face and to quantify the reflected light intensity on volunteers. Machine learning algorithms will be used to derive physiology triggers to e.g. control the MRI data acquisition process. - Biomedical Engineering
