Development and Application of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Spectroscopy
Mahmod group
Cardiovascular Clinical Research Facility Division of Cardiovascular Medicine Oxford Centre for Clinical Magnetic Resonance Research
Our expertise is in clinical trials, whereby we aim to discover novel treatments for improving the health of patients with cardiac diseases. We use cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) and spectroscopy techniques to improve our understanding of myocardial metabolism and function, and for early detection of cardiac abnormalities in cardiomyopathy, heart failure, valve disease and diabetes. We use cardiopulmonary exercise test to understand cardiovascular exercise physiology, by studying how oxygen and other nutrients are used by the heart during exercise. We work closely with multidisciplinary research teams including MR physicists, biomedical engineers and other cardiac imaging experts in the UK and elsewhere in the world.
Lewandowski Group: Developmental Systems Physiology
Cardiovascular Clinical Research Facility Division of Cardiovascular Medicine Oxford Centre for Clinical Magnetic Resonance Research
Our group focuses on understanding how alterations to early human development affect long-term disease risk and how to reduce risk through nutritional and lifestyle interventions. Disruptions to normal development, including exposure to pregnancy complications such as being born preterm, are risk factors for early heart failure, stroke and cardiovascular events. To study early developmental changes, we use multi-modality imaging, activity monitoring, questionnaire data and birth records, as well as blood sample collection to study cellular pathways in fetal through to young adult human cohorts.
Neubauer Group: Oxford Centre for Clinical Magnetic Resonance Research
Division of Cardiovascular Medicine Oxford Centre for Clinical Magnetic Resonance Research
OCMR uses sophisticated cardiac MR imaging and spectroscopy methods to phenotype cardiovascular disease – in small-scale proof-of-principle studies, large-scale multicentre clinical trials and ultra-large scale population imaging programmes. As well as running their own research programmes, OCMR serves as a collaboration partner to any group wanting to strengthen their clinical research with state of the art non-invasive phenotyping tools.
Ferreira Group: Quantitative cardiac magnetic resonance myocardial tissue characterisation
Division of Cardiovascular Medicine Oxford Centre for Clinical Magnetic Resonance Research
We have expertise in the study of heart disease using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), particularly quantitative techniques such as myocardial T1-mapping.
Myerson Group: Heart Valve Disease
Division of Cardiovascular Medicine Oxford Centre for Clinical Magnetic Resonance Research
We investigate diseases of the heart valves – how widespread the problem is, what the causes are, who is at risk from future problems and what treatments can improve outcomes for patients.
Rider Group: Obesity, Heart Failure, Linking Myocardial Metabolism and Function
Division of Cardiovascular Medicine Oxford Centre for Clinical Magnetic Resonance Research
We use multi-parametric cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and multinuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to non-invasively investigate the relationship between cardiac metabolism and cardiac function.
