The purpose of this human studies protocol is to provide technical support for clinical research studies that are run in collaboration with physicians and academics at the Columbia University Medical Center. This support includes the installation of state-of-the-art methods and the development of new techniques for human investigation at 1.5 T, 3 T, and 7 T using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Spectroscopy (MRS), quality control assessment and training of research staff in the use of the MR systems at the Columbia Magnetic Resonance Research Laboratories. The aims of the above studies are the in vivo investigation of pathology in multiple sclerosis (MS) and other neurological disorders with MRI and MRS techniques.
