Researchers from School of Optometry detail new studies and findings in the area of magnetic resonance imaging

Research findings, 'Ex vivo magnetic resonance imaging of crystalline lens dimensions in chicken,' are discussed in a new report. "A reduction in the power of the crystalline lens during childhood is thought to be important in the emmetropization of the maturing eye. However, in humans and model organisms, little is known about the factors that determine the dimensions of the crystalline lens and in particular whether these different parameters (axial thickness, surface curvatures, equatorial diameter, and volume) are under a common source of control or regulated independently of other aspects of eye size and shape," scientists in Cardiff, the United Kingdom report.
