Dr. Gold's primary focus is application of new MR imaging technology to musculoskeletal problems. Current projects include:

• Rapid MRI for Osteoarthritis,
• Weight-bearing cartilage imaging with MRI,
• MRI-based models of muscle.

The Gold group is studying the application of new MR imaging techniques such as rapid imaging, real-time imaging, and short echo time imaging to learn more about biomechanics and pathology of bones and joints.
