## Abstract In vivo assessment of trabecular bone microarchitecture could improve the prediction of fracture risk and the efficacy of osteoporosis treatment and prevention. Geodesic topological analysis (GTA) is introduced as a novel technique to quantify the trabecular bone microarchitecture from

## Abstract ## Purpose To explore the potential role of microβmagnetic resonance imaging (ΞΌβMRI) for quantifying trabecular and cortical bone structural parameters in renal osteodystrophy (ROD), a multifactorial disorder of bone metabolism, traditionally evaluated by bone biopsy. ## Materials and
## Abstract Quantitative analysis of brain structures in normal subjects and in different neurological conditions can be carried out in vivo through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) volumetric studies. The use of highβresolution MRI combined with image postβprocessing that allows simultaneous multi
Purpose: To characterize the effect of ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxides (USPIOs) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signal at 4.7 T, and to find the highest sensitivity pulse sequence for high-resolution USPIO MRI. ## Materials and Methods: A novel phantom was constructed for optimizatio
