Abstract Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) plays a central role in developing quantum
information sciences and technologies. Key features such as its non-invasive nature and the …

Characterization of microstructures in living tissues is one of the keys to diagnosing early
stages of pathology and understanding disease mechanisms. However, the extraction of …

Changes in the nervous system due to neurological diseases take place at very small spatial
scales, on the order of the micro and nanometers. Developing non-invasive imaging …

Determination of the spin echo signal evolution and of transverse relaxation rates is of high
importance for microstructural modeling of muscle tissue in magnetic resonance imaging. So …

Magnetic resonance imaging is one of the most widely used methods for non-invasive
medical imaging. Gradient modulation sequences can selectively extract quantitative …

Magnetic resonance imaging is a powerful, non invasive tool for medical diagnosis. The low
sensitivity for detecting the nuclear spin signals, typically limits the image resolution to …

Methods Theoretical tools. We use information theory tools (Bayesian and Fisher
Information) to determine the optimal control parameters of DWI sequences for estimating …

METHODS White-matter phantom. We used home-made phantoms containing aramid fibers
immersed in water to emulate restriction-size distributions similar to those found in the extra …
