Presence of time-dependent diffusion in the brachial plexus (2017)
Journal Article
Mahbub, Z. B., Peters, A. M., & Gowland, P. A. (2018). Presence of time-dependent diffusion in the brachial plexus. Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 79(2), 789-795. https://doi.org/10.1002/mrm.26733

Purpose This work describes the development of a method to measure the variation of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) with diffusion time (Δ) in the brachial plexus, as a potential method of probing microstructure. Methods Diffusion-weighte... Read More about Presence of time-dependent diffusion in the brachial plexus.

³¹P magnetization transfer magnetic resonance spectroscopy: assessing the activation induced change in cerebral ATP metabolic rates at 3 T (2017)
Journal Article
Chen, C., Stephenson, M. C., Peters, A., Morris, P. G., Francis, S. T., & Gowland, P. A. (2018). ³¹P magnetization transfer magnetic resonance spectroscopy: assessing the activation induced change in cerebral ATP metabolic rates at 3 T. Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 79(1), 22-30. https://doi.org/10.1002/mrm.26663

Purpose: In vivo ³¹P MRS magnetization transfer (MT) provides a direct measure of neuronal activity at the metabolic level. This work aims to use functional ³¹P MRS-MT to investigate the change in cerebral ATP metabolic rates in healthy adults upon r...

Quantitative analysis of the z-spectrum using a numerically simulated look-up table: application to the healthy human brain at 7T (2016)
Journal Article
Geades, N., Hunt, B. A. E., Shah, S. M., Peters, A., Mougin, O. E., & Gowland, P. A. (2017). Quantitative analysis of the z-spectrum using a numerically simulated look-up table: application to the healthy human brain at 7T. Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 78(2), 645-655. https://doi.org/10.1002/mrm.26459

Purpose: To develop a method that fits a multipool model to z-spectra acquired from non–steady state sequences, taking into account the effects of variations in T1 or B1 amplitude and the results estimating the parameters for a four-pool model to des...

Three-dimensional vessel segmentation using a novel combinatory filter framework (2014)
Journal Article
Ding, Y., Ward, W., Wästerlid, T., Gowland, P., Peters, A., Yang, J., …Bai, L. (2014). Three-dimensional vessel segmentation using a novel combinatory filter framework. Physics in Medicine and Biology, 59(22), https://doi.org/10.1088/0031-9155/59/22/7013

Blood vessel segmentation is of great importance in medical diagnostic applications. Filter based methods that make use of Hessian matrices have been found to be very useful for blood vessel segmentation in both 2D and 3D medical images. However, the...
