Dr. Reiter's research is focused on the development and application of quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and spectroscopy (MRS) approaches for addressing basic and applied research questions primarily in the musculoskeletal system. These approaches aim to improve the measurement of biomechanical, biophysical, biochemical, metabolic, and functional tissue properties in healthy and diseased conditions with the goal of obtaining detailed characterization of tissue status and disease progression, and enhanced diagnostic accuracy.
