Research Focus
Dr. Dmitriy A. Yablonskiy's research lab focuses on developing advanced MRI techniques to improve the early detection of Alzheimer's Disease and its progression. The lab is working on a novel MRI method called Deep-Learning-Augmented quantitative Gradient Recalled Echo (DLA-qGRE), which allows for better identification of brain microstructural changes associated with neurodegeneration before significant symptoms appear. This work aims to create efficient, non-invasive diagnostic tools that can help monitor Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative conditions.
