An Introduction to Kurtosis Fractional Anisotropy [PDF]
Neuroradiology and imaging-based diagnostics in general have a dire need for scan techniques with improved microstructural sensitivity for detection of subtle tissue alterations in early disease phases or for diagnostics of diseases that are currently simply radiologically invisible.

Previous studies revealed several alterations of the cerebral white matter in patients with major depressive disorder. However, it is unknown if these alterations are associated with vascular changes in the brain and other body parts.

Visualization of infarction using fractional anisotropy [PDF]
Introduction Accurate localization of ischemia is crucial in diagnosis of myocardial disease. The zHARP[1] pulse sequence quantifies myocardial function by computing a three-dimensional strain tensor at each voxel, from which principal strain values and orientations can be computed.

Visual hallucinations and inferior longitudinal fasciculus in Parkinson's disease
Introduction We investigated whether disruption of the inferior longitudinal fasciculus and inferior fronto‐occipital fasciculus are associated with visual hallucinations in Parkinson's disease (PD).

Transient increase of fractional anisotropy in reversible vasogenic edema [PDF]
Brain vasogenic edema, involving disruption of the blood-brain barrier, is a common pathological condition in several neurological diseases, with a heterogeneous prognosis. It is sometimes reversible, as in posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome, but often irreversible and our current clinical tools are insufficient to reveal its reversibility ...

Dopamine content in the basal ganglia is strongly associated with the degree of dopaminergic neuron loss in the substantia nigra pars compacta. Symptoms of Parkinson's disease might not arise until more than 50% of the substantia nigra pars compacta is ...

Nucleus Accumbens Fractional Anisotropy and Children’s Body Mass Index: Moderating Role of Race and Family Income [PDF]
Background and aims: The nucleus accumbens (NAcc) functional and morphometric features may influence children’s body mass index (BMI). Recent evidence, however, suggests that the function and structure of the NAcc may have different predictive abilities ...

Fractional Anisotropy changes in Parahippocampal Cingulum due to Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]
AbstractCurrent treatments for Alzheimer’s disease are only symptomatic and limited to reduce the progression rate of the mental deterioration. Mild Cognitive Impairment, a transitional stage in which the patient is not cognitively normal but do not meet the criteria for specific dementia, is associated with high risk for development of Alzheimer’s ...
