The application of modern magnetic resonance techniques to investigate the human brain in healthy and in pathologic conditions. Applied methods using a 3 Tesla MR-scanner dedicated to research only comprise: MR-imaging (T1-/T2-/MT-/PD-weighted; Volumetry, Quantitative MR-imaging), Diffusion-weighted- and diffusion-tensor-imaging (Distortion-free STEAM technique, Tractography), Localized MR-spectroscopy (Absolute metabolite quantification), Functional MR-Imaging (in combination with EMG, EEG, and TMS)
