Lee's Laboratory for
Intelligent Medical Imaging Technology (LIMITLESS)
Introduction
Our research is focused on developing new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods, and their translation to a variety of scientific and clinical studies. Specific research interests include: 1) optimal design of pulse sequences and image reconstruction algorithms based on MRI physics and signal processing principles, 2) quantitative assessments of physiologic/functional parameters, 3) novel endogenous contrast mechanisms, and 4) migration of artificial intelligence techniques to all areas of medical imaging applications.
