Investigating the Quantitative Nature of Magnetization Transfer in vivo at 3 tesla

Magnetization transfer (MT) imaging has emerged as a viable alternative to conventional structural MRI indices. It has been shown to be remarkably sensitive to changes in myelin associated with pathologies such as multiple sclerosis (MS). Previous work has built a solid foundation to study the MT ef...
