The development of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for use in medical investigation has
provided a huge forward leap in the field of diagnosis, particularly with avoidance of …

Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) studies are increasingly popular among clinicians and
researchers as they provide unique insights into brain network connectivity. However, in …

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) account for the majority of injury-related deaths in the United
States with roughly two million TBIs occurring annually. Due to the spectrum of severity and …

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 …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive technique which can provide
comprehensive, multi-parametric information on brain anatomy, function and metabolism …

This paper describes a new NMR imaging modality--MR diffusion tensor imaging. It consists
of estimating an effective diffusion tensor, Deff, within a voxel, and then displaying useful …

Abstract On May 3, 2008, a National Cancer Institute (NCI)-sponsored open consensus
conference was held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, during the 2008 International Society for …

The diagonal and off-diagonal elements of the effective self-diffusion tensor, D eff, are
related to the echo intensity in an NMR spin-echo experiment. This relationship is used to …

Anisotropic water diffusion in neural fibres such as nerve, white matter in spinal cord, or
white matter in brain forms the basis for the utilization of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) to …

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 …
