Diffusion MRI (dMRI) provides invaluable information for the study of tissue microstructure
and brain connectivity, but suffers from a range of imaging artifacts that greatly challenge the …

Diffusion encoding along multiple spatial directions per signal acquisition can be described
in terms of a b-tensor. The benefit of tensor-valued diffusion encoding is that it unlocks …

Tractography based on diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) is widely used for mapping the
structural connections of the human brain. Its accuracy is known to be limited by technical …

Diffusion MRI streamlines tractography suffers from a number of inherent limitations, one of
which is the accurate determination of when streamlines should be terminated. Use of an …

Diffusion MRI fiber tractography is widely used to probe the structural connectivity of the
brain, with a range of applications in both clinical and basic neuroscience. Despite …

Diffusion MRI allows the structural connectivity of the whole brain (the 'tractogram') to be
estimated in vivo non-invasively using streamline tractography. The biological accuracy of …

Purpose Diffusion encoding with asymmetric gradient waveforms is appealing because the
asymmetry provides superior efficiency. However, concomitant gradients may cause a …

White matter alterations are present in the majority of patients with Alzheimer's disease type
dementia. However, the spatiotemporal pattern of white matter changes preceding dementia …

Age-related microstructural differences have been detected using diffusion tensor imaging
(DTI). Although DTI is sensitive to the effects of aging, it is not specific to any underlying …

Preterm infants are at increased risk of alterations in brain structure and connectivity, and
subsequent neurocognitive impairment. Breast milk may be more advantageous than …
