NJIT CNN Lab

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) uses strong magnetic fields, magnetic field gradients, and radio waves to visualize structures in the body such as the brain. Unlike X-Rays, PET Scans, or CT Scans, MRI does not expose the body to any radiation, which gives it an obvious advantage as an imaging tool. Using MRI technology, our lab is able to examine the neural structural and functional activity of each participant's brain, which gives us a wealth of information for our research. This participant suffered a concussion, and using MRI we can examine neural changes that may be occurring in this developing brain!

We are currently conducting several studies for both children and adults with concussions and ADHD. Please feel free to read about our different studies and see if you may be interested in participating.
