Diffusion-Weighted Imaging of the Spinal Cord
[chapter]
2014
Quantitative MRI of the Spinal Cord
Kurtosis imaging contains quantitative information about the non-Gaussian diffusion profile (especially useful at high b-values, where restricted diffusion is better depicted). ...
Despite differences in pulse sequences, if signal attenuation is plotted versus the degree of diffusion weighting (i.e., b-value) for the human studies, it produces a mean ADC in the human cervical spinal ...

Double diffusion encoding and applications for biomedical imaging
2020
Journal of Neuroscience Methods
Diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging (dMRI) is one of the most important contemporary non-invasive modalities for probing tissue structure at the microscopic scale. ...
These enhanced contrasts can play important roles in characterizing biological tissues, for instance upon diseases (e.g. neurodegenerative, cancer, stroke), aging, learning, and development. ...

In vivo observation and biophysical interpretation of time-dependent diffusion in human white matter
2016
NeuroImage
The presence of micrometer-level restrictions leads to a decrease of diffusion coefficient with diffusion time. Here we investigate this effect in human white matter in vivo. ...
We perform stimulated echo diffusion tensor imaging on 5 healthy volunteers and observe a relatively weak time-dependence in diffusion transverse to major fiber tracts. ...
Acknowledgments We would like to thank Kecheng Liu, Christopher Glielmi and Thorsten Feiweier from Siemens Healthcare for providing support and guidance related to the STEAM acquisition. ...

Diffusion-Exchange Weighted Imaging
2009
Magnetic Resonance Insights
A method has been developed whereby diffusion and exchange in micro cellular structures in the human brain are correlated to produce a new type of image contrast leading to determination of water exchange ...
The diffusion method relies on differential apparent diffusion coefficients as detectable nuclei exchange between adjacent compartments marked with different apparent diffusion coefficient values (e.g. ...
