Aashim Bhatia

The Bhatia Lab interest is focused on translating advanced quantitative imaging biomarkers (sodium MRI, chemical exchange saturation transfer, DTI, MRS, and MR elastography) into clinical practice to better characterize pediatric CNS tumors pre- and post-treatment

Honored to present Grand Rounds at @JeffersonHealth today! 🏥 Deep dive into our lab’s latest research on advanced spinal cord imaging & how it’s changing the game for clinical diagnostics. 🧬@BhatiaLab Huge thanks to the faculty & residents for the engaging Q&A! #PediNeuroRad

Friendly competition and dinner at the F1 Arcade 🏎️🏁 Made great memories and not as great laps at our lab outing

Our post-doc Tyler Williams recently gave an amazing oral presentation at @The_ASPNR on the value of Sodium MRI in translational studies for pediatric brain tumors.

Had our monthly interdisciplinary Neuro-Onc coffee session today at CHOP ☕🍪 Dr. Bhatia introduced the (many) projects in the lab and offered (many) choices of coffee...Stay tuned for February's speaker ❄️

Great talk by Dr. Grace McIlvain @gracemcilvain on #MRElastography in the brain! The insights you shared were truly fascinating and will definitely advance our understanding in the @BhatiaLab . Thanks for a fantastic presentation and visiting us at CHOP! #Neuroscience #MedicalImaging @CHOPRadiology

Our lab is working with @Apple to develop neuroradiology solutions using the Apple Vision Pro spatial computer headset @draash With our new endeavor, radiology data can become more interactive than ever🧠🗺️🩻🔎

Bhatia Lab team at work ⚡️Looking forward to sharing the research carried on with our team and collaborators soon

Meet our new team at CHOP Bhatia Lab! 🧠Lance Tyler Williams 🧠Raisa Amiruddin 🧠Necla Ece Yilmaz

Excited to restart our very informative Neuroradiology-Oncology coffee sessions in September! ☕️

"The sodium signal in pediatric brain tumors is reflective of the cellular physiology of neoplastic cells in the tumor microenvironment. Here we present detailed imaging approaches to quantifying sodium concentrations in the pediatric brain that can be assessed in various CNS pathologies."
