Our work on Romer-EPTI has been selected as the cover image of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (MRM), April 2025 (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/mrm.30365)

Lab received $2M R01 grant from NIH NIBIB R01 EB036507 (Impact score 20, PI: Fuyixue Wang), titled "Developing next-generation imaging technologies for in-vivo mesoscale diffusion MRI and microstructure imaging".The goal of this project is to develop novel acquisition and reconstruction methods for in-vivo diffusion MRI at mesoscopic resolutions and/or high b-values.

Romer-EPTI paper on mesoscale diffusion MRI is now published in MRM with Open Access(https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/mrm.30365)

Single-shot EPTI paper is now published on MRM with Open Access(https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/mrm.30327)

Congratulations to Zhangxuan! His abstract, "Water/Fat Separated Echo Planar Time-Resolved Imaging (EPTI) for Efficient Distortion-Free Multi-Contrast Imaging", has been awarded the Summa Cum Laude Merit Award and was selected as an ISMRM AMPC Highlight (top 1%) at ISMRM 2024!

Our abstract "EPTIMA: Echo Planar Time-resolved Imaging derived Millisecond-scale temporal resolution Acquisition" has been awarded the Summa Cum Laude Merit Award and was selected as an ISMRM AMPC Highlight (top 1%) at ISMRM 2024!

Our work on "Romer-EPTI for SNR-efficient motion-robust distortion-free mesoscale dMRI and microstructure imaging" won the Best Scientific Oral award from the ISMRM Diffusion study group.

We have two abstract awarded ISMRM Magna Cum Laude Merit Award at ISMRM 2023:#1 "Mesoscale Distortion-Free In-Vivo DMRI At 7T Using ROtating-View Motion-Robust SupEr Resolution EPTI (Romer-EPTI)."#2 "4D CSF Flowmetry To Map Brain-Wide Slow CSF Flow Dynamics And Patterns In Subarachnoid Space."

Lab received a 5-year U24 grant from NIH NINDS U24 NS129893 (Impact score 20, PI: Fuyixue Wang), titled "Advancing fMRI acquisition through dissemination of EPTI – an efficient distortion-free multi-contrast imaging technology".The goal of this project is to advance fMRI studies through the dissemination of EPTI, an efficient distortion-free multi-contrast imaging technology.

EPTI sequences are freely available upon request at MGH-C2P Website or through the Siemens teamplay C2P exchange. Please check the EPTI dissemination website for more details: https://martinos.org/~fw089/index.html The EPTI dissemination is supported by NIH NINDS BRAIN Initiative U24 grant to develop and disseminate EPTI for functional MRI.

Our abstract "4D whole-brain CSF flowmetry: slow flow dynamics in ventricles and subarachnoid space" won the 1st Place Abstract Award at ISMRM Workshop on Neurofluids 2022, which is the first ISMRM workshop for imaging neurofluids!

Our abstract "SuperRes-EPTI: in-vivo mesoscale distortion-free dMRI at 500μm-isotropic resolution using short-TE EPTI with rotating-view super resolution" won the Best Abstract Award in acquisition from Diffusion Study Group, and the Summa Cum Laude Merit Award at ISMRM 2022.
