Neonatal and Infant Imaging Research
An innovative, high-field magnetic resonance (MR) scanner is currently in operation for investigational use in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). It is the only MR scanner in the world housed within a NICU and specifically designed for infants.
MR scans are vital to neonatologists who need precise data that might change a newborn’s course of care. Because they do not use radiation, MR scans also present less of a health risk than other imaging technologies, especially in preterm infants whose systems are still developing.
Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia and Continued Patient Follow up
Our researchers use the high-resolution images produced by this state-of-the-art technology to depict and quantify the different aspects of bronchopulmonary dysplasia. This precise data can help diagnose conditions earlier, and customize treatment plans for our patients.
