IRON CONTENT OF PUTAMEN IMAGE RETREAT – 2005 by Bharani Krishnamurthy Graduate Research Assistant Dept of Biomedical Engg Wayne State University
Bachelor of Engineering Electrical and Electronics Engg University of Madras (2000-2004) Master’s in Biomedical Engineering Wayne State University (current) Iron deposition of putamen T2* imaging BOLD and fMRI ACADEMIC BACKGROUND INTERESTS
Deposition of Iron in putamen • Basic Study of the Alzheimer’s project involves the study of the deposition of iron in various areas in the brain like motor cortex, putamen, globus pallidus, caudate nucleus etc. • My prime focus has been the deposition of iron and the pattern of mineralization in the putamen. • Post processing of data from WSU and LLU is done and results inferred.
Pattern of Mineralization Upper Putamen Globus pallidus • 3 • 1 4 Lower Putamen
ReferenceBrain Mineralization with Age, Sheri L. Harder, MD, FRCPC Department of Medical Imaging University of Saskatchewan • The pattern of mineralisation was already studied in T1 and T2 images. • In the current study pattern is being observed with the SWI images.
