Diffusion Kurtosis Imaging of Neonatal Spinal Cord in Clinical Routine [PDF]
Diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) has undisputed advantages over the more classical diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) as witnessed by the fast-increasing number of clinical applications and software packages widely adopted in brain imaging. However, in the neonatal setting, DKI is still largely underutilized, in particular in spinal cord (SC ...

Measurements of water diffusion with MRI have been used as a biomarker of tissue microstructure and heterogeneity. In this study, diffusion kurtosis tensor imaging (DKTI) of the brain was undertaken in 10 healthy volunteers at a clinical field strength ...

Fast diffusion kurtosis imaging of fibrotic mouse kidneys [PDF]
Diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) is sensitive to tissue microstructure and may therefore be useful in the diagnosis and monitoring of disease in brain and body organs. Generally, diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) in the body is challenging because of the heterogeneous body composition, which can cause image artefacts as a result of chemical ...

Application of diffusion kurtosis imaging in neonatal brain development
BackgroundDeviations from the regular pattern of growth and development could lead to early childhood diseases, suggesting the importance of evaluating early brain development. Through this study, we aimed to explore the changing patterns of white matter and gray matter during neonatal brain development using diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI).Materials ...

Diffusion kurtosis imaging of gray matter in schizophrenia
Prior postmortem studies have shown gray matter (GM) microstructural abnormalities in schizophrenia. However, few studies to date have examined GM microstructural integrity in schizophrenia in vivo. Here, we employed diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) to test for differences in GM microstructure in eighteen schizophrenia (SZ) patients versus nineteen ...

Fast imaging of mean, axial and radial diffusion kurtosis [PDF]
Diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) is being increasingly reported to provide sensitive biomarkers of subtle changes in tissue microstructure. However, DKI also imposes larger data requirements than diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), hence, the widespread adaptation and exploration of DKI would benefit from more efficient acquisition and computational ...
