In a study of 30 active-duty United States SOF personnel, a team led by Martinos Center affiliated faculty member Brian Edlow, MD, found that increased blast exposure was associated with structural, functional, and neuroimmune changes to the brain and a decline in health-related quality of life.
Hakan Ay, MD, a stroke physician and an investigator in the department of Radiology, discusses a study recently reported in Annals of Neurology.
The Martinos Center’s Bruce Fischl and colleagues report a comprehensive cellular atlas of Broca’s area. Ultimately, the methods developed for the study could help create 3D models of an entire human brain.
The Martinos Center’s Anastasia Yendiki, PhD, is the lead PI of the new Center for Large-scale Imaging of Neural Circuits (LINC), which will map the highways & byways of the brain at unprecedented scales.
The finding, by the department’s Michael T. Lu, MD, MPH, and colleagues, was reported in the New England Journal of Medicine.
In a new study, Center for Systems Biology researcher Matthias Nahrendorf, MD, PhD, and colleagues showed that targeting these cells may therefore represent a promising strategy to treat and prevent AFib.
Center for Systems Biology researcher Matthew Leming, PhD and colleagues have reported a deep learning method for detection of Alzheimer’s disease based on routinely collected clinical brain images. The tool may help clinicians identify patients who would benefit from treatment.
Marc Succi, MD, a physician-investigator in the Department of Radiology and Director of the MESH Incubator at Massachusetts General Hospital, discusses a recent study, “Trends in oncological imaging during the COVID-19 pandemic through the vaccination era.”
