Imaging is a major unifying theme across the laboratory. For example, to assess cardiac physiology and function, we typically use magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy. This powerful approach provides the most comprehensive information about cardiac anatomy and structure, global and regional function, tissue properties and characterization, and metabolism – all within a single imaging session (see Cardiac Physiology and Function section, below).

Imaging at UT Arlington
The UT Arlington Clinical Imaging Research Center is a state-of-the-art MRI research facility.
The center is located in the Science and Engineering Innovation and Research Building. Within this incredible facility is a dedicated 3 Tesla research dedicated MRI scanner, and two research dedicated exam rooms.
Members of the Applied Physiology and Advanced Imaging Laboratory have full access to this facility and all of its resources.
