Imaging
The Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging is a research center based in the Department of Radiology of the Massachusetts General Hospital. They currently use conventional, high speed and high field magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, MR spectroscopy, optical imaging, magnetoencephalography (MEG), and electroencephalography (EEG) to explore properties of biological systems and to develop ways to treat human pathologies such as cancer, mental illness and cardiovascular disorders
