Neuroimaging group, Second Faculty of Medicine Charles University
FOCUS AND RESEARCH OBJECTIVES
We are a multidisciplinary group consisting of doctors, engineers, radiological assistants and physiologists, whose main task is to provide MRI examinations and their evaluation in the highest possible quality, meeting the latest world standards. As part of this task, we deal with implementation of new MRI protocols for routine but also non-standard brain examination for scientific purposes. In cooperation with Czech and foreign groups in the field of magnetic resonance physics, we are introducing new protocols for MRI scanning in Motol hospital, enabling an advanced examination of the patient and thus a deeper and more complex diagnosis.
Research objectives:
– Mechanisms of ictogenesis and epileptogenesis
– Stroke
– Neuroinflammation and cerebral metabolism
– Neuroimaging
