The diffusion of water molecules inside organic tissues is often anisotropic (1). Namely, if
there are aligned structures in the tissue, the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of water …

Diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging (DTI) is a relatively new technology that is
popular for imaging the white matter of the brain. This article provides a basic and broad …

This book provides an overview of the practical aspects of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI),
from understanding the basis of the technique through selection of the right protocols …

The success of diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is deeply rooted in the powerful
concept that during their random, diffusion‐driven displacements molecules probe tissue …

Directionally‐ordered cellular structures that impede water motion, such as cell membranes
and myelin, result in water mobility that is also directionally‐dependent. Diffusion tensor …

Diffusion-tensor (DT) MR imaging4, 5 has been proposed as an attractive noninvasive tool
for evaluating structural and physiologic states in biologic tissues by measuring the diffusion …

Magnetic resonance (MR) diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) can resolve the white matter fiber
orientation within a voxel provided that the fibers are strongly aligned. However, a given …

The concepts behind diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) are commonly difficult to grasp, even for
magnetic resonance physicists. To make matters worse, a many more complex higher-order …

Recent studies have shown that the diffusional signal decay in human brain is non‐
monoexponential and may be described in terms of compartmentalized water fractions …

This review covers the fundamentals of diffusion tensor imaging. It is written with the clinician
in mind and assumes the reader has a passing familiarity with magnetic resonance imaging …
