The Committee of the SMBE Victoria All Welcome Prof Stefan Neubauer FMedSci FRCP Development and Application of Magnetic Resonance Techniques for Phenotyping of Cardiovascular Disease Clinical research in this area is carried out on 1.5 and 3T Siemens MR systems at the University of Oxford Centre for Clinical Magnetic Resonance Research (link), where we employ state-of-the-art cardiovascular magnetic resonance methods to assess aspects of cardiac function and physiology currently inaccessible to conventional imaging methods. Examples include tissue characterization methods (e.g. T1 mapping), myocardialoxygenation (BOLD), 4D flow and 7 Tesla human imaging (7T system installed 9/11). We also apply established CMR techniques to study novel scientific hypotheses, e.g. in patients with cardiomyopathies, ischemic heart disease and heart valve disease. Examples include the development of diagnostic criteria for left ventricular non-compaction, perfusion abnormalities in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, or assessment of irreversible myocardial injury associated with revascularization (PCI or CABG). Our clinical science programme is closely integrated with the clinical cardiac CMR service (link) for the ORH NHS Trust, providing a truly translational research environment. State-of-the-art methods for experimental Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Spectroscopy, to non-invasively characterize experimental models, are being developed at the BHF experimental MR unit (BMRU), co-led by Dr Jürgen Schneider, using a 9.4T high-field Agilent MR system.
