Modeling the Intermediate Flow Regime in Flow‐Compensated Intravoxel Incoherent Motion MRI

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 6, Page 3476-3487, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose The intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) model is commonly used to separate the effects of motion related to diffusion and blood microcirculation (perfusion) on the MR signal. Depending on the encoding time (T), it is possible to probe the different temporal regimes of blood motion, which resemble a ballistic flow at short T and a ...
