Quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (qMRI) goes beyond conventional MRI, which
aims primarily at local image contrast. It provides specific physical parameters related to the …

Mapping tissue microstructure with MRI holds great promise as a noninvasive window into
tissue organization at the cellular level. Having originated within the realm of diffusion NMR …

We review, systematize and discuss models of diffusion in neuronal tissue, by putting them
into an overarching physical context of coarse‐graining over an increasing diffusion length …

This work introduces a compartment-based model for apparent cell body (namely soma) and
neurite density imaging (SANDI) using non-invasive diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI). The …

This paper introduces neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging (NODDI), a
practical diffusion MRI technique for estimating the microstructural complexity of dendrites …

Diffusion MRI is arguably the method of choice for characterizing white matter microstructure
in vivo. Over the typical duration of diffusion encoding, the displacement of water molecules …

The biophysical modeling efforts in diffusion MRI have grown considerably over the past 25
years. In this review, we dwell on the various challenges along the journey of bringing a …

Preterm infants are at high risk of neurodevelopmental impairment, which may be due to
altered development of brain connectivity. We aimed to (i) assess structural brain …

With advances in neonatal care, preterm neonates are surviving with an evolving
constellation of motor and cognitive disabilities that appear to be related to widespread …

Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) is widely used to probe tissue microstructure,
and is currently the only non-invasive way to measure the brain's fiber architecture. While a …
