OBJECTIVES

The objective of this grant is to introduce quantitative methods of non-invasive imaging to postdoctoral and occasional predoctoral scientists, for training purposes.

METHODOLOGY

Trainees participate in research carried out under other approved protocols. No additional human subjects are recruited.

INVOLVEMENT OF AND RISK TO HUMAN SUBJECTS

Trainee researchers participated in studies carried out and reported under Research Medicine Protocol (RMP) 1 and RMP 24 (see LBNL 80-001-H01 and LBNL-84-001-Ho3, respectively). No additional risks to human subjects are incurred as a result of this project.
