The MR Physics group is divided into several research environments or subgroups. The subgroup structure is dynamic and the number of subgroups as well as the research topics therefore varies over time. Subgroups, forming a “vertical” organisation structure in the group, are always encouraged to collaborate, thereby forming “horizontal/translational" collaborative structures, often defined by parti

The latest program version is 1.2 Download (zip 2.8 MB)   Lupe 1.2 is based on version 2.3 of the Lund IDL library. The zip file for download contains both, Lupe and the library against which it has been compiled and tested. Newer versions of the library might work, older versions will most likely not as program and library development go hand in hand. Important: By downloading and using the progr

BackgroundChemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (CEST) MRI is a new technology that can detect low (millimolar) concentrations of natural non-metallic magnetic marker molecules through the presence of groups with exchangeable protons, such as hydroxyls (OH), amides (NH) and amines (NH2). These protons interact with the water protons detected in MRI through physical exchange, generally referred to

BackgroundIn diffusion MRI (dMRI), images are sensitised to water diffusion by the application of magnetic field gradients. Cell membranes hinder the diffusional motion and thereby contribute to the contrast in dMRI. Thus, the diffusion of water molecules is used a probe of tissue microstructure. Specific WorkData from dMRI is often analysed using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), which yields image
