Project Title: Neurovascular Reactivity


This project involves developing novel, non-invasive methods using MRI technology to measure vascular function in the brain as the key supporting mechanism for brain activity. The development and refinement of a new cerebrovascular reactivity method for MRI to measure blood flow in the brain and the development of a sequence could result in a significant reduction in scanning times.
