BME Professor Trouard Discusses Developing Better MRI Scans in NPR Interview

Ted Trouard, professor of both biomedical engineering and medical imaging, is leading a project to find how MRI technology can collect data faster and get higher resolution images. He says the research can help doctors make better diagnoses, evaluate therapies, and investigate progressions of disease.

“We collaborate with a lot of the right people who understand the biology and the medicine of important problems and work with them to try to use neuroimaging, or MRI in general, to answer important questions in their research,“ said Trouard -- who also holds professorships with the BIO5 Institute and the Evelyn F. McKnight Brain Institute -- when he spoke on NPR with Leslie Tolbert, Regents' Professor emerita in neuroscience.
