ABSTRACT Background Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) serves as a medium for nutrient delivery and waste clearance. The T1 relaxation rate, R1, can be used to measure the concentration of intrinsic solutes and extrinsic contrast agents. Purpose To implement a method for R1 mapping and segmentation of CSF and to use this method to explore how R1 of CSF relates ...

A new in silico model to precisely design focused ultrasound brain therapies
Abstract Background Focused ultrasound (FUS) combined with microbubbles enables transient and noninvasive blood–brain barrier (BBB) opening, facilitating targeted drug delivery. However, accurate treatment planning remains difficult due to inter‐patient anatomical variability and the common assumption in simulations that brain tissues behave like water.

Diffusion MRI free water is a sensitive marker of age-related changes in the cingulum
International audienceAbstract Diffusion MRI is extensively used to investigate changes in white matter microstructure. However, diffusion measures within white matter tissue can be affected by partial volume effects due to cerebrospinal fluid and white ...

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.

ABSTRACT Purpose In diffusion MRI, vasogenic edema manifests as a major fraction of isotropic water that dilutes the anisotropic intra‐axonal portion of the signal. Many tractography algorithms mistake vasogenic edema for the white matter boundary and terminate tracking to prevent producing spurious streamlines.

Identifying rodent olfactory bulb structures with micro-DTI [PDF]
Olfactory bulb (OB) is one of the most developed systems in rodent models with complex neuronal organization and anatomical structures. MR diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a non-invasive technique to probe tissue microstructures by examining the ...

ABSTRACT Purpose To characterize the diffusion properties of prostate epithelium and stroma in benign tissue and cancer. Methods Paired MR microscopy (20 μm) and multidimensional diffusion MRI (dMRI) (160 μm, b = 1000–2000 s/mm2, ∆ = 15–120 ms) were performed at 16.4 T on 17 fixed prostate tissue samples (14× benign, 2× Gleason 3 + 3, 1× Gleason 4 + 4).
