This free webinar hosted by Scintica Instrumentation reviewed the fundamentals of Magnetic Resonance Histology (MRH) and provided a number of relevant examples. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has been used for years in preclinical research to perform in vivo studies allowing for the sensitive detection of pathological changes in soft tissue and to provide quantitative three-dimensional data.It has been used in longitudinal studies to noninvasively monitor the genesis, progression and regression of a wide variety of diseases, reducing the need for interim sacrifice of animals at specified time points, thus allowing the same animal to be used as its own control within a given study. MRH is the use of MR imaging on formalin-fixed tissues for high resolution characterization of tissue structure. It is a highly valuable complimentary adjunct to conventional histopathology, as it permits a thorough examination to be performed through multiple digital slices of an entire organ, while leaving the formalin-fixed specimen intact for subsequent definitive conventional diagnostic histopathology.
