Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (HU), under the guidance of Professor Aviv Mezer, concluded that it is possible to reveal cellular changes

MRI images are used to automatically detect microstructural changes in

Mezer's phD student, Elior Drori, used a new analytical method to clearly reveal biological changes in

qMRI achieves its sensitivity by taking multiple MRI images with different excitation energies, rather than taking the same photo

"Without measurement, you don't know what's normal, what's abnormal in your brain structure, and what changes

"Our discovery is just the tip of the iceberg

This type of analysis will help identify subgroups of patients with Parkinson's disease — some of whom may respond differently to certain drugs than others
