Strong diffusion gradients allow the separation of intra- and extra-axonal gradient-echo signals in the human brain
2020
NeuroImage
Voxelwise analysis of the signal evolution with respect to b-factor and acquisition delay using a microscopic model demonstrated differences in gradient echo signal evolution between the intra- and extra-axonal ...
Using D-FASE we can separately assess the evolution of the intra- and extra-axonal signals under the action of susceptibility effects, revealing differences in the behaviour in different fibre tracts. ...
Deployment of the diffusion filtering allowed us to separate the intra-and extra-axonal ASE signals unambiguously. ...

Microstructural imaging of the human brain with a 'super-scanner': 10 key advantages of ultra-strong gradients for diffusion MRI
2018
NeuroImage
The diffusion-weighted MR signal is sensitive only to a window of restriction lengths and the bounds of that window depend strongly on the available gradient strength. ...
We finally discuss practical barriers in the use of ultra-strong gradients, and provide an outlook on the next generation of 'superscanners'. then discuss practical challenges in making use of such as ...

Quantifying myelin in crossing fibers using diffusion‐prepared phase imaging: Theory and simulations
2021
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine
The expected bias is estimated in the log g-ratio for reasonable in vivo acquisition parameters caused by eddy currents (~4%-10%), remaining extra-axonal signal (~15%), and gradients in the bulk off-resonance ...
In the human brain, white matter fiber pathways connecting different brain areas and carrying different functions often cross each other in the same voxel. ...
After diffusion-weighting the signal will be dominated by the intra-axonal water in axons perpendicular to the diffusion-weighting gradient. ...

New insights about time-varying diffusivity and its estimation from diffusion MRI

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine
We present the explicit signal expressions for the case of single diffusion encoding and oscillating gradient spin-echo sequences. ...
There is also strong statistical evidence about time-varying diffusivity from the in vivo human data set. ...
Thus, separating the intra-and extra-axonal signals into two separate compartments might provide a more accurate estimation of the time-dependent diffusivity (from extra-axonal space). ...
