Diagnostics of human articular cartilage using MRI

Agreement on scientific co-operation: ÚM SAV - MR Centre of Excellence, Department of Radiology, Medical University of Vienna , Austria

Duration of the project: 08/2006 - 12/2016

Agreement for Scientific Cooperation, Univ.-Prof. Dr. Siegfried Trattnig.

Principal investigator: prof. Ing. Ivan Frollo, DrSc.

 

The subject of common interest is the investigation in following main areas:

1. Diagnostics of human articular cartilage using MRI,

2. Imaging of micro- and nanostructures based on magnetic resonance for biomedical and material research,

3. Mutual visits of scientists and PhD students enabling them to perform imaging experiments on MRI instruments in the laboratories of partners in the appropriate time limits.
