Why do we need higher magnetic field MRI systems, such as the 7T MRI at the Carle Illinois Advanced Imaging Center, to further our understanding of how the brain works? Because we need to know more about brain networks than just which regions are talking to each other, we need to know which direction information is flowing and what type of information is being received. With 7T, we can unlock these details about fine scale components of the brain's networks, separating feedforward and feedback connections through layer specific functional connectivity.

"The practical MR-linac", practical is really selling this technology short. The Aurora-RT was designed with simplicity and cost reduction in mind. The system can be sited in any typically sized bunker, installed through the maze, and does not require a cryogen exhaust vent. Because the Aurora-RT has a beam-stop, shielding is required only for scattered radiation, reducing site costs. Once installed, the system runs without needing liquid helium or any liquid cryogens, reducing operating costs. The magnet can be turned on or off in minutes, improving research and service operations. It also uses many existing radiotherapy techniques, for example, existing ion chambers, laser setup and table shifts. The Aurora-RT offers increased throughput, decreased claustrophobia, no process changes, significantly reduced dose perturbations for safer delivery and improved MR guidance via use of the 0.5 T “sweet spot”.

It’s #UnderTheMicroscopeMonday and today, we’re taking a look at this stunning image, of a leaf tissue 🍂 To create this incredible 3-dimensional image, array tomography was used, making it possible to visualise and quantify previously inaccessible features of the tissue structure. The image shows us chloroplasts and endoplasmic reticulum, the purple representing haze =Os, and the blue representing backscattered. 🔬 Detector used: Ultim Extreme | https://okt.to/wdjseH 💻Software used: AZtec | https://okt.to/scy31U
