Papers

The work we do is published in many leading high-impact journals, as well as appropriate specialty journals.

VIL Papers

Some of the journals we publish in include, but are not limited to: Annals of Neurology, Atherosclerosis, Neurology, Stroke, Neuroimage, Neuroimage: Clinical, Journal of Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism, Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance in Biomedicine.

The publications from the group have received over 18,800 citations in the peer reviewed literature (Google Scholar, August 2024).

A number of patents have been issued for our work, and imaging techniques developed in Calgary are now distributed as part of our network activities. Via the Calgary Image Processing and Analysis Centre (CIPAC) large numbers of multi-centered imaging studies are coordinated from Calgary.
