Revisiting the interpretation of axon diameter mapping using higher-order signal representations. [PDF]
Diffusion-weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging (dMRI) has emerged as an imaging modality of interest to measure axon diameters noninvasively. The previously observed b-½ power law scaling suggests that high b-value dMRI signals originate from water ...

Experience-related reductions of myelin and axon diameter in adulthood. [PDF]
The production of new myelin has been highlighted as an underappreciated mechanism of brain plasticity, but whether plastic decreases in myelin also happen in the adult brain has been largely unexplored. Recently, Sinclair et al. (Sinclair JS, Fischl MJ, Alexandrova O, Heß M, Grothe B, Leibold C, and Kopp-Scheinpflug C. J Neurosci 37: 8239–8255, 2017)

Myelination of neuronal axons in the central nervous system (CNS) by oligodendrocytes (OLs) enables rapid saltatory conductance and axonal integrity, which are crucial for normal brain functioning.

Axon diameter and intra-axonal volume fraction of the corticospinal tract in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus measured by q-space imaging. [PDF]
PURPOSE: Previous studies suggest that compression and stretching of the corticospinal tract (CST) potentially cause treatable gait disturbance in patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH).

The influence of axonal beading and undulation on axonal diameter mapping
Abstract We consider the effect of non-cylindrical axonal shape on axonal diameter mapping with diffusion MRI. Practical sensitivity to axon diameter is attained at strong diffusion weightings b , where the deviation from the

G-ratio is crucial for understanding the nervous system’s health and function as it measures the relative myelin thickness around an axon. However, manual measurement is biased and variable, emphasizing the need for an automated and standardized ...
