ENCITE hands-on "Cell tracking with MRI"

This workshop is organized by the In-vivo-NMR Laboratory, a member of the Multi-Center Cluster of ENCITE for training of cell tracking aspects. The In-vivo-NMR Laboratory is one of the leading European centers for ultrahigh field small animal MRI, equipped with 3 state-of-the-art MRI systems for rodent investigations (Bruker Biospec 7.0 9.4 and 11.7T).

This workshop is dedicated on elucidating principle requirements for in vivo MRI based cell tracking, using a combination of basic lectures about the experimental workflow and technical equipment coupled with hands-on demonstrations on each experimental step. Beyond the introductory sets of tools for cell tracking, current cutting-edge methods, like 19F MRI and multimodal approaches, will also be discussed.

Organizers: Markus Aswendt and Mathias Hoehn
