The research group in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) at DRCMR strive to understand the complex neural mechanisms that are continuously at work in our brains by combining leading-edge MRI techniques with physiological knowledge of the brain. We use MR to study not only the sensory and motor systems of the brain, as well as higher cognitive functions, but in order to improve the life of patients with neurological and psychiatric diseases fMRI is also included into several clinical research projects.

MRI is an important tool for the diagnosis and monitoring of multiple sclerosis (MS). However, there is a generally weak correlation between conventional MRI-based measures of MS lesion burden and clinical disability. DRCMR MS-group employs advanced MRI techniques with improved specificity and sensitivity to investigate the diffused lesions and pathophysiological mechanisms of MS. The newer MRI methods include: functional MRI (fMRI), functional connectivity MRI (fcMRI), magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI). The research projects are performed in collaboration with the Danish Multiple Sclerosis Research Center (DMSC), and supported by the Danish MS foundation.
