Learning a Reliable Estimate of the Number of Fiber Directions in Diffusion MRI
[chapter]
2012
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Having to determine an adequate number of fiber directions is a fundamental limitation of multi-compartment models in diffusion MRI. ...
The method is shown to result in plausible and reproducible decisions on three repeated scans of the same subject. ...
Introduction Multi-compartment models are a traditional way of estimating more than a single fiber orientation in diffusion MRI [1, 2] . ...

Identification of Gadolinium Contrast Enhanced Regions in MS Lesions Using Brain Tissue Microstructure Information Obtained from Diffusion and T2 Relaxometry MRI
[chapter]
2018
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
However in non-contrast enhanced structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) the regions of the lesion undergoing active BBB breakdown cannot be distinguished from the other parts of the lesion. ...
We thus propose a framework to predict enhancing regions in MS lesions using tissue microstructure information derived from T2 relaxometry and diffusion MRI (dMRI) multicompartment models. ...
Simultaneous estimation of the weights and parameters of the distributions of such multi-compartment models is nontrivial and not reliable in terms of robustness and accuracy [13] . ...

The Diffusion-Simulated Connectivity (DiSCo) Dataset
2021
Data in Brief
The methodological development in the mapping of the brain structural connectome from diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) has raised many hopes in the neuroscientific community. ...
The simulated images capture the microscopic properties of the tissue (e.g. fibre diameter, water diffusing within and around fibres, free water compartment), while also having desirable macroscopic properties ...

A model describing diffusion in prostate cancer
2016
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine
The model satisfactorily explains the variability of ADC estimates found in the literature. ...
Here prostate diffusion is analyzed in terms of a model that takes explicit account of tissue compartmentalization, exchange effects and the non-Gaussian behaviour of tissue diffusion. ...
However, to date the heterogeneity of prostate tissue has not generally been taken into account and MRI parameter estimates represent a weighted average of the contributions of the different compartments ...

Separating blood and water: Perfusion and free water elimination from diffusion MRI in the human brain
2017
NeuroImage
The influence of the vascular compartment on the estimation of the free water fraction and other diffusivities was investigated by simulating perfusion in diffusion MRI data. ...
Free water estimates from diffusion MRI are assumed to account for freely diffusing water molecules in the extracellular space, but may be biased by other pools of molecules in rapid random motion, such ...
The number of directions per shell was chosen since six directions (in addition to a baseline) is the minimal angular resolution required to estimate a diffusion tensor. ...

Isotropic non-white matter partial volume effects in constrained spherical deconvolution
2014
Frontiers in Neuroinformatics
Diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive imaging method, which can be used to investigate neural tracts in the white matter (WM) of the brain. ...
In addition, a low diffusion weighting or SNR increases the effects. The non-WM PVEs may cause problems in connectomics, where reliable fiber tracking at the WM-GM interface is especially important. ...

Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Diffusion MRI is a key in-vivo non invasive imaging capability that can probe the microstructure of the brain. ...
Diffusion Compartment (DC) models divide the voxel into smaller compartments in which diffusion is homogeneous. ...
In addition, notwithstanding S 0 and τ 2 are not diffusion parameters, their accurate knowledge is critical for a reliable estimation of the diffusion parameters. ...

Axon Diameter Index Estimation Independent of Fiber Orientation Distribution Using High-Gradient Diffusion MRI
2020
NeuroImage
Axon diameter mapping using high-gradient diffusion MRI has generated great interest as a noninvasive tool for studying trends in axonal size in the human brain. ...
This approach is shown to significantly benefit from the use of real-valued diffusion data with Gaussian noise, which reduces the systematic bias in the estimated parameters resulting from the elevation ...

Application of stereological estimates in patients with severe head injuries using CT and MR scanning images
2010
British Journal of Radiology
The reliability of the estimates was tested by obtaining repeated intra-and interobserver estimates of selected subdivisions of the brain in patients with acute head injury, as well as in an MR phantom ...
The estimates of different subdivisions showed a coefficient of variation (CV) below 12% in the patients and below 7% for phantom estimation. ...
This could be caused by differences in the definitions of the various compartments in histology/ MRI or by the small number of cases in this study. ...
