Neuronal stem cells tracked using MRI: Technology could inform treatment for brain injury and neurological disease

Friday, September 30, 2011 - 05:30 in Health & Medicine

Biologists have developed an MRI-based technique that allows researchers to non-invasively follow neural stem cells in vivo. The recently patented technology could be used to further the study of neural stem cells and inform the development of new treatments for brain injury caused by trauma, stroke, Parkinson's disease and other neurological disorders.
