The expertise of NeuroSpin in diffusion MRI has allowed to establish the first atlas of the anatomical connectivities of the Japanese quail brain at a resolution of 150 m in three dimensions.
Neurospin researchers conducted a longitudinal brain imaging study in very premature infants to analyze the variability of the shape of the central sulcus early in its development and its functional implications.
A team at NeuroSpin, in collaboration with the University of Ulm (Germany), published a study in Nature Communications that suggests the existence of multisensory correlation detectors in the human brain.
A team from SPI used mass spectrometry to analyze the degree of alteration of the intestinal microbiota of Covid-19 patients and to look for signatures of intestinal infection by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The level of the observed gut dysbiosis would be an indicator of the stage and extent of the infection.
A study led by NeuroSpin researchers proposes an optimized delineation of rare brain tumors, based on a combined approach of object detection and deep learning segmentation in tumor images, a key step in the characterization of cancers.
NeuroSpin researchers propose a new version of their compressed MRI acquisition algorithm, SPARKLING, extended to 3D imaging. Their method reduces acquisition time by a factor of 20 for T2*-weighted scans without compromising image quality.
The ptairMS software, developed in the framework of a collaboration led by the CEA-Joliot, allows the processing and analysis of proton transfer mass spectrometry data, an ideal method for the real-time study of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) present in exhaled breath.
Researchers at the LIAA (SPI/DMTS) show that the initial route of sensitization to a food allergen (oral, respiratory, cutaneous) directly influences the nature of immune responses at multiple sites in the body.
Researchers from the SHFJ and the DMTS have developed optimized radioligands for immunoPET imaging. The objective is to better predict the effectiveness of anti-PD1/anti-PDL1 immunotherapy used to fight certain cancers.
Researchers from the SCBM describe a hydrogen isotope labeling process that is easy to implement and whose starting point is a "simple" mixture, in a solvent, of the product to be labeled with a pre-catalyst. Explanations of this process which finds applications in many fields including drug development or medical imaging.
