About

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) performance depends on equipment performance, equipment maintenance and relevance of MRI sequence used. To optimize MRI performance, it's necessary to develop, optimize, test and validate new acquisition sequences for enhanced diagnosis and therapy monitoring. These new sequences will allow better spatial resolution and specificity while reducing acquisition time.

Full description

The purpose of the present study is to test and optimize, on healthy subjects, specific MRI acquisition sequences firstly developed in a preclinical phase on phantoms (inert objects containing solutions or gels) and animal (Pig, sheep). This study will allow the investigators to define practical acquisition parameters that will allow reproducible results and precise definition of clinically relevant examination protocols for each new developed sequence.
