Architecture of lower leg muscles in children: Reference curves and potential mechanisms of growth
Muscle architecture (physiological cross‐sectional area, fascicle lengths and pennation angle) was measured from multimodal MRI scans of the lower legs of 197 children aged ≤15 years. We showed that lower leg muscle volumes (product of PCSA and fascicle length) increase primarily through increases in PCSA (transverse growth) rather than increases in ...

Functional and structural connectivity of thalamic subnuclei in major depressive disorder at 7 Tesla
Aims Major depressive disorder (MDD) is widely considered to be a mood disorder characterized by altered connectivity. The thalamus plays an important role in MDD by connecting large areas of the brain. Here, we explored thalamic connectivity in MDD at the subnuclear level using ultra‐high‐field MRI.

Quantitative Diffusion and T2 Mapping Using RF‐Modulated Phase‐Based Gradient Echo Imaging
ABSTRACT Purpose To introduce and evaluate the feasibility of a novel RF‐phase modulated gradient echo (GRE) method for quantitative diffusion MRI, aimed at mitigating geometric distortion and enabling high‐resolution 3D quantitative diffusion/T2 mapping as a complementary alternative to conventional DWI.
