Innovative In Vivo Visualization Technology Development Industry-Academia Collaborative Research Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A research lab that uses MRI and AI to visualize the movement of interstitial fluid in the brain.

AboutAbout the lab
Capturing the movement of the brain's interstitial spaces with MRI and AI.
The Innovative In Vivo Visualization Technology Development Industry-Academia Collaborative Research Lab aims to use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and artificial intelligence to obtain quantitative information on biological tissues, such as the central nervous system, with high accuracy.
Its main target is to clarify the shape and movement of the interstitial spaces of the central nervous system.
The endolymphatic system of the inner ear is also a subject of study, and the lab is exploring the conditions for objective, automated evaluation using artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Key terms
- Interstitial space
- A space that can be called the infrastructure of central nervous system tissue.
- Neurofluid
- A collective name for the fluids that fill the interstitial spaces and the central nervous system, including cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial fluid.
- Endolymphatic system
- One of the regions of the inner ear, filled with interstitial fluid.
ResearchResearch themes
Within the central nervous system, research on the structure and function of the interstitial space has not advanced as far as in other areas. This lab applies MRI and artificial intelligence to elucidate the dynamics of the interstitial space and of neurofluid.
