Among a variety of imaging modalities, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has unique and appealing capabilities of providing very rich image-based information such as anatomical, physiological, and chemical characteristics of an object to be imaged.

​

Our group mainly intends for development of advanced MRI methods and their clinical/preclinical/scientific applications, where MRI methods include pulse-sequence programming, data-acquisition and reconstruction strategy, RF pulsedesign/application, and any methodology for better MRI performance in various areas. Especially, our group has an expertise in “ultrashort echo-time imaging” and “frequency-modulated RF pulses” at global level. We are also using both human scanners (3 T, 7 T) and animal scanners (9.4 T, 15.2 T) for our research, which means we are ready for translational research anytime.

​

We are always open to any new possibilities for advanced MRI methods and their interesting applications. We sincerely welcome graduate students or researchers with passion and academic curiosity to our group.
