Impact: This 90-second reference-free MRI protocol enables comprehensive 3D assessment of velopharyngeal function during speech at 60 frames per second. The approach addresses limitations in current clinical imaging methods, potentially improving surgical outcome evaluation and treatment planning for cleft palate patients.

Impact: Video-based motion-capture using OpenCap is a simple and cost-effective tool for assessing muscle function and quantity/quality in older adults. This makes it a convenient alternative to MRI and dynamometry for monitoring muscle health, and identifying subjects at risk of sarcopenia.

Impact: We developed a dynamic MR imaging and analysis pipeline to quantify tibiofemoral and patellofemoral kinematics. This approach eliminates the need for static reference scans and complex registrations, enabling subject-specific assessment of coupled knee motion from a single 10-minute scan.

Impact: Our open MRI-based hip-joint imaging technique can provide surgeons with load-bearing visuals of hip dynamics, offering better contrast than X-ray-arthrograms, and avoiding hospitalisation, anaesthesia, contrast, and radiation risk. The dynamic-3D models will further facilitate personalised, objective surgical planning across trusts.

Impact: Our robust time-resolved 4D strain measurements reveal changing biomechanical behavior of muscle tissue when contracted, using data from only a single repetition. This could enhance the analysis of in vivo biomechanics.

Impact: High-frame-rate real-time MRI enables direct, non-invasive quantification of in vivo joint mechanics. We demonstrate a reliable approach for real-time load tracking and biomechanical analysis, offering valuable insight for injury prevention, rehabilitation, performance-optimisation, and supporting sports medicine interventions in elite athletes.

Impact: vPIVOT MRI allows for simultaneous measurement of macro and microvascular blood flow dynamics following a vasoactive stimulus. Here, we sought to evaluate physiologic factors that may influence the post-exercise vPIVOT response kinetics, such as age, VO₂Peak, and arterial stiffness.

Impact: This study establishes a non-invasive MR approach translating conventional CPET into an in-magnet exercise-test, enabling simultaneous assessment of muscle mitochondrial and microvascular function. Its feasibility in neuromuscular disease highlights its promise as a tool to advance insight into exercise intolerance.

Impact: The 3D qDESS method is in good agreement with MESE and STEAM muscle-water $T_2$ values in skeletal muscle under pre- and post-exercise conditions, making it a sensitive and viable tool for FSHD clinical trials.

Impact: Can traits found in early parts of the BOLD-curve reveal microvascular dysfunction in PAD patients? In this work we deep dive into the variations of patient T₂^*-curves, identifying and quantifying curve traits with the potential to phenotype PAD.
