CT-guided Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy and MRI-guided Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Prostate Cancer MIRAGE Study
Imaging modalities for image-guided SBRT can be either computed tomography imaging (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or a combination of the two. This research is being done to help determine whether there are benefits to MRI-guidance over CT-guidance in patients who are receiving the same radiation dose by SBRT to …

Layer-specific Contribution to Consolidation of Skill Learning in the Primary Motor Cortex
Design Participants will be screened with: Medical and neurological history Medicine review Physical exam Neurological exam. Participants may have 2 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the brain. During the MRI, they will lie in the scanner. The scanner makes noise. They will get earplugs.

Attentional Performance in Parkinson Disease
Participants may have functional and structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRI uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to take pictures of the brain. During the MRI, participants will lie on a table that slides in and out of the MRI scanner.

A Closed-loop Brain-computer Interface for Stroke
It may be hard to acquire stable sensorimotor rhythm from the affected motor cortex for patient without a response of paretic hand. A few studies suggest two ways to approaching closed-loop therapy: peripherally extracting the residual signals, for example electromyogram (EMG) at proximal muscles (deltoids) and centrally extracting the activity …

Maternal Obesity and Offspring Neurodevelopment
Our goals are to characterize the effects of maternal obesity during pregnancy on infant brain development, reveal the neurodevelopmental consequences, and identify possible mechanisms causing these effects. Our overall hypothesis is that maternal obesity during pregnancy exposes the fetus to an inflammatory environment that affects infant brain structural and functional …

ICG Fluorescence Imaging in Trauma Patients
This will be a prospective observational trial to better understand the range and variation associated with bone/soft tissue perfusion in fracture patients and examine the relationship between perfusion, measured using quantitative Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence and complications such as surgical site infection (SSI), persistent SSI, and fracture nonunion.

A Study of Cognitive Changes in Patients Receiving Brain Radiation
Cranial radiation therapy (RT), commonly used to treat benign and malignant brain tumors, can lead to cognitive impairments in domains not related to neuroanatomic structures directly impacted by the tumor. The study will prospectively enroll 58 patients with benign and low-grade brain tumors who will undergo partial brain RT, with …

The Effectiveness of Surgical Treatment of Patients With Ischemic Cardiomyopathy
The study focuses on the development of a new personalized approach to diagnostics and surgical treatment of patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy. The algorithm for selection of patients for certain type of cardiac surgery will be developed. The models for prediction of the risks and outcomes of cardiac surgery will be …

Biomarkers of CASH
The project aims to develop prognostic and diagnostic blood tests for symptomatic brain hemorrhage in patients diagnosed with cavernous angiomas, a critical clinical challenge in a disease affecting more than a million Americans. We further examine whether blood biomarkers can replace or enhance the accuracy of advanced imaging in association …

Magnetic Resonance Imaging to Detect Signs of Viral Pneumonia in Patients With Coronavirus Infection.
However, the increased patient flow creates an additional pressure on CT centers. We believe, the use of chest magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can help to test patients for CVID-19 when CT scan is not available. Lung MRI may be useful in routing a patient in a difficult epidemiological situation.
