MR Cancer Group
Our work focuses on development of magnetic resonance (MR) technology in identification of the functional and metabolic changes that precede anatomic evidence of cancer disease, tracking gene expression, studying drug delivery and response, and monitoring basic cellular processes.
|
The main goal is to develop metabolic, vascular and molecular imaging to assess therapeutic effects to be translated into the clinic. |

Aims at developing metabolic, vascular and molecular imaging for individual patient handling and treatment. |
|
|
The main goal using MR Metabolomics is to evaluate the clinical value of HR MAS for different kinds of cancer (breast, brain, prostate, colon and cervix), and by that establish HR MAS for predicting metastatic potential and choice of treatment. |
