    Imaging the Vascular Brain for Healthy Aging

    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides a powerful, non-invasive window into the brain structure and function. As a versatile modality, it can also measure blood flow in the brain. This talk describes why cerebral blood flow is essential to support brain health and how MRI scans contribute to our knowledge of brain physiology toward healthy aging.
