OVERVIEW |
|
This two-hour course will provide
practical recommendations for mouse screening using MRI and MRS
techniques. It will provide information necessary for optimizing
the experimental protocol, cover animal handling, etc. Further,
this course will offer tips and tools to optimize mouse
screening, e.g. reduce the time requirements and at the same
time maximize anatomical and biochemical information. There are
many rapid developments ongoing in this field, and this course
will offer a fresh update. |
