Summary

The GI MRI Research group at the University of Nottingham has been developing new, non-invasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques to image the gastrointestinal tract. In collaboration with food manufacturer Unilever, the investigators want to image the abdomen of healthy volunteers after consumption of test meals of varying volume and energy density to determine levels of gastric distension and investigate possible correlations of this with the subjects' sense of satiety.
