We present a novel dual-encoded magnetization transfer (MT) and diffusion-weighted sequence and demonstrate its potential to resolve distinct properties of white matter fiber tracts at the sub-voxel level. The sequence was designed and…
The connectivity and structural integrity of the white matter of the brain is nowadays known to be implicated into a wide range of brain-related disorders. However, it was not before the advent of diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging (dMRI)…
Fiber tracking based on diffusion weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging (dMRI) allows for noninvasive reconstruction of fiber bundles in the human brain. In this chapter, we discuss sources of error and uncertainty in this technique, and…
High angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI) is a type of diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) that measures diffusion signals on a sphere in q-space. It has been widely used in data acquisition for human brain structural…
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) is a critical imaging method for capturing and modeling tissue microarchitecture at a millimeter scale. A common practice to model the measured DW-MRI signal is via fiber orientation…
Ultra-low-field (ULF) MRI is emerging as an alternative modality to high-field (HF) MRI due to its lower cost, minimal siting requirements, portability, and enhanced accessibility factors that enable large-scale deployment. Although ULF-MRI…
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) can be used to characterise the microstructure of the nervous tissue, e.g. to delineate brain white matter connections in a non-invasive manner via fibre tracking. Magnetic Resonance…
Learning-based approaches, especially those based on deep networks, have enabled high-quality estimation of tissue microstructure from low-quality diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) scans, which are acquired with a limited number…
