Friday 11 December at 11:00, Christian Østergaard Mariager defends his PhD dissertation entitled "Hyperpolarized 13C-magnetic resonance for assessment of organ transplant graft viability".
The worldwide number of patients awaiting organ transplantation is increasing, directly leading to a shortage of donor organs. Normothermic perfusion is a possible strategy to meet increased demand and improve outcome after transplantation. However, highly sensitive organ viability assessment strategies, such as hyperpolarized and functional magnetic resonance imaging, are needed to support this continued effort.
The summary is written by the PhD student.
The defence is public and will be held online via Zoom (https://aarhusuniversity.zoom.us/s/69188147614)
