Research/Academic Interests

Dr. Jang's research focuses on the development of novel quantitative MRI techniques targeting musculoskeletal and neurological disorders. Particularly, Dr. Jang is interested in ultrashort echo time (UTE) imaging-based T1/T2/T1ρ relaxometry, fat quantification, diffusion weighted imaging, magnetization transfer, quantitative susceptibility mapping, double echo steady state, and electrical property tomography.
