b'MRI is an important clinical tool to study dementia symptoms in vivo. However, certain pathologies (microbleeds, plaques, tangles) can evade current imaging techniques. Seven tesla (7T) MRI provides a potentially exciting new opportunity to visualise these pathologies in vivo. Dr. Elizabeth McKiernan (University of Cambridge) discusses the literature around 7T MRI, and its scope in neurodegenerative dementias.\\nRead the review in the JNNP website: http://jnnp.bmj.com/content/early/2017/03/03/jnnp-2016-315022.'
