Decreased DTI-ALPS and choroid plexus enlargement in fibromyalgia: a preliminary multimodal MRI study

Neuroradiology, 2023
The glymphatic system is a fluid exchange pathway that clears waste products that is crucial for the maintenance of brain homeostasis. However, the exact role it plays in the emergence of fibromyalgia (FM) is still not fully understood. Here, we explored the changes in non-invasive MRI proxy probably related to the glymphatic function in FM patients ...

Reduced DTI-ALPS index in tinnitus patients: DTI-ALPS as a mediator of sleep on tinnitus

Neuroradiology
Sleep disturbance is a common comorbidity in tinnitus patients, which may be attributed to changes in brain structure and function. The aim of this study was to explore the potential role of the glymphatic system (GS), a recently discovered pathway for brain waste clearance, in tinnitus and the associated sleep disturbance.The DTI-ALPS index of 22 ...

Assessment of the DTI‐ALPS Parameter Along the Perivascular Space in Older Adults at Risk of Dementia

Journal of Neuroimaging, 2021
ABSTRACTBACKGROUND AND PURPOSERecently, there has been growing interest in the glymphatic system (the functional waste clearance pathway for the central nervous system and its role in flushing solutes (such as amyloid ß and tau), metabolic, and other cellular waste products in the brain.

DTI-ALPS Scoping Review

This project outlines the protocol for a scoping review aiming to systematically map the scientific literature on the use of Diffusion Tensor Image-Analysis Along the Perivascular Space (DTI-ALPS) as a non-invasive imaging technique to assess glymphatic function in human neurological disorders.

Research progress in the evaluation of glymphatic system function by the DTI-ALPS method.

Zhong nan da xue xue bao. Yi xue ban = Journal of Central South University. Medical sciences, 2023
The glymphatic system can remove metabolic wastes from the brain, which plays a significant role in maintaining the homeostasis of the central nervous system. It is an important basis for advanced cognitive functions such as learning and memory. Studies have analyzed the function of glymphatic system by diffusion tensor imaging analysis along the ...

Glymphatic activity changes in patients with chronic insomnia：a DTI-ALPS study

ISMRM Annual Meeting
Motivation: Long-term chronic insomnia is considered to be a high risk factor for dementia,but the relationship between insomnia and glymphatic activity is unclear. Goal(s): Aim to explore the relationship between the changes of DTI-ALPS index and mental and psychological performance in chronic insomnia patients.

Assessment of Brain Glymphatic Function in Neurosyphilis Patients Using DTI-ALPS

ISMRM Annual Meeting
Motivation: Explore glymphatic function changes in neurosyphilis using DTI-ALPS. Goal(s): Evaluate whether DTI-ALPS can reflect neurosyphilis-related neural damage and serve as an imaging biomarker to predict cognitive functions. Approach: DTI data were collected from 18 asymptomatic neurosyphilis patients, 28 with general dementia, and 32 healthy ...

DTI-ALPS mapping: A Novel Method for Analyzing the Glymphatic System in the Brain

ISMRM Annual Meeting
Motivation: A voxel-based mapping method could display the entire cerebral white-matter ALPS index, allowing full-scale analysis of ALPS index. Goal(s): To develop a novel method for intuitively and comprehensively assessing glymphatic system activity and tracking full-scale ALPS changes along the dementia continuum.

Evaluation of the Glymphatic System Using the DTI-ALPS Index in Patients with Glioma

ISMRM Annual Meeting
We evaluated the function of the human glymphatic system (GS) in patients with glioma using diffusion tensor imaging analysis along with the perivascular space (DTI-ALPS). Thirty-seven patients with glioma and 34 healthy controls (HCs) were recruited for analysis.

Evaluation of glymphatic system function in patients with thalassemia: a study based on DTI-ALPS technology

Neuroradiology
Thalassemia is an inherited hematological disorder characterized by chronic anemia and multisystem involvement, including potential impacts on the central nervous system. Research has suggested a relationship between thalassemia and glymphatic system dysfunction, which may contribute to neurocognitive impairments.
