@crageshri #uclgrad @profstuartaylor stupid hat but I will take it for working with Stuart Taylor! @CMI_UCL

@anu_obaro Great to share the graduation with you and the great Saurabh singh. @CMI_UCL well represented

A big THANK YOU to our consensus meeting Chair @JanvanderMeule6 and to everyone who participated in our #NCITA #Consensus Group meeting discussions both in person and virtually to build consensus on accelerating #PET #radiotracer and #MRI biomarkers into clinical practice!

"So ultimately the question isn't whether we should use MRE or Ultrasound. It's when we should use them [in the management of Crohn's Disease]" -- @profstuartaylor ( @CMI_UCL ) #radiology #gastroenterology #GITwitter #crohnsdisease #IBD #DigitalHealth

Great to see this in print! This is an elegant way to 'disentangle' tissue inflammation from damage with MRI and could be a sensitive, specific and widely-applicable alternative to STIR. Easy to implement on any modern scanner. Let us know if you'd like to try it!

🚨New publication alert @CMI_UCL @uclh 🚨 Great work with @tjp_bray, Dr Alan Bainbridge and Professor Margaret Hall-Craggs among others! Graphical abstract below (courtesy of Natalia Santacreu Alvarez) @ISMRM @mrm_highlights onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/mr…
