Differentiating Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients from healthy controls (HCs) remains a challenge. The changes of protein level in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of AD patients have been reported in the literature. Macromolecules will hinder the…
Diffusional kurtosis imaging (DKI) is a methodology for measuring the extent of non-Gaussian diffusion in biological tissue, which has shown great promise in clinical diagnosis, treatment planning and monitoring of many neurological…
The displacement distribution of a water molecular is characterized mathematically as Gaussianity without considering potential diffusion barriers and compartments. However, this is not true in real scenario: most biological tissues are…
Diffusion models have advanced generative AI significantly in terms of editing and creating naturalistic images. However, efficiently improving generated image quality is still of paramount interest. In this context, we propose a generic…
Diffusion kurtosis imaging is an extension of diffusion tensor imaging that provides scientifically and clinically valuable information about brain tissue microstructure but suffers from poor robustness to noise, especially in voxels…
Diffusion MRI measures of the human brain provide key insight into microstructural variations across individuals and into the impact of central nervous system diseases and disorders. One approach to extract information from diffusion…
Purpose: To develop and validate a phantom for diagnostic ultrasound (US) scanners by embedding targets in gel wax to determine the image uniformity, lateral and axial resolution, and diameter of a stainless-steel disc. Materials and…
We report on extensive molecular dynamics simulations on systems of soft spheres of functionality f, i.e. particles that are capable of bonding irreversibly with a maximum of f other particles. These bonds are randomly distributed…
Computer simulations were done of the mean square displacement (MSD) of tracer particles in colloidal gels formed by diffusion or reaction limited aggregation of hard spheres. The diffusion coefficient was found to be determined by the…
Magnetic resonance imaging technique known as DWI (diffusion-weighted imaging) allows measurement of water diffusivity on a pixel basis for evaluating pathology throughout the body and is now routinely incorporated into many body MRI…
Biophysical modelling of diffusion MRI is necessary to provide specific microstructural tissue properties. However, estimating model parameters from data with limited diffusion gradient strength, such as clinical scanners, has proven…
Microgels are often discussed as well-suited model system for soft colloids. In contrast to rigid spheres, the microgel volume and, coupled to this, the volume fraction in dispersion can be manipulated by external stimuli. This behavior is…
We have developed a microfluidic tool to measure the diffusion coefficient $D$ of solutes in an aqueous solution, by following the temporal relaxation of an initially steep concentration gradient in a microchannel. Our chip exploits…
Using molecular dynamic simulations we study a waterlike model confined between two fixed hydrophobic plates. The system is tested for density, diffusion and structural anomalous behavior and compared with the bulk results. Within the range…
A practical correction formula relating the self-diffusion coefficient of dense liquids from molecular dynamics simulations with periodic boundary conditions to the self-diffusion coefficient in the thermodynamic limit is discussed. This…
The enhancement of surface diffusion (DS) over the bulk (DV) in metallic glasses (MGs) is well documented and likely to strongly influence the properties of glasses grown by vapor deposition. Here, we use classical molecular dynamics…
We use theory and simulations to investigate the existence of amorphous glassy states in ultrasoft colloids. We combine the hyper-netted chain approximation with mode-coupling theory to study the dynamic phase diagram of soft repulsive…
The low temperature properties of glass are distinct from those of crystals due to the presence of poorly understood low-energy excitations. The tunneling model proposes that these are atoms tunneling between nearby equilibria, forming…
Hydrogels behave as viscoelastic soft solids and display a porous microstructure filled with water with typical amounts of 90\%~w/w or more. As such, these materials are highly sensitive to water loss through evaporation, which impacts…
A variety of researchers have successfully obtained the parameters of low dimensional diffusion models using the data that comes out of atomistic simulations. This naturally raises a variety of questions about efficient estimation,…
