Congratulations to Zhongzheng He and Paul Soullié, whose paper has just been published in Nature Scientific Reports!
In this article, MRI measurements of electrical conductivity were carried out on a small population of healthy adult volunteers. Interestingly, the values measured in-vivo in the brain were reproducible, and higher than the ex-vivo values currently used as reference charts. In addition, significant associations were identified between conductivity in several organs and age, fat fraction or sex. To find out more, read the open-access article:
