Reston Town Center was conceived and planned starting in the late 1970s by Mobil Land Development for approximately 460 acres (190 ha) of undeveloped land near Washington Dulles International Airport. [3] Construction of the town center began in 1988, over 20 years after the founding of Reston in 1964 by Robert E. Simon.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to generate pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes inside the body. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields , magnetic field gradients, and radio waves to form images of the organs in the body.
ACR Education Center – located in Reston, VA, offers specialized mini-fellowships in more than a dozen clinical areas. [3]American Institute for Radiologic Pathology (AIRP) – The AIRP conducts five courses for radiology residents and fellows, and seven categorical courses for practicing radiologists and other physicians each year in Silver Spring, MD.
Lake Anne Center was the first village center created in the planned community, and features a mix of commercial and residential buildings around a plaza and inlet of Lake Anne, a man-made reservoir. The village center was designed by Reston's master planner and architect James Rossant of New York City for Robert E. Simon and built 1963–67.
Phase contrast MRI is one of the main techniques for magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). This is used to generate images of arteries (and less commonly veins) in order to evaluate them for stenosis (abnormal narrowing), occlusions , aneurysms (vessel wall dilatations, at risk of rupture) or other abnormalities.

Whereas traditional magnetic resonance imaging generates a black-and-white image in which brightness is determined primarily by the T1 or T2 relaxation times of the tissue being imaged, the spectroscopic information obtained in an MRSI study can be used to infer further information about cellular activity (metabolic information).
