Diffusion tensor model links to neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging at high b-value in cerebral cortical gray matter [PDF]
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging (NODDI) are widely used models to infer microstructural features in the brain from diffusion-weighted MRI. Several studies have recently applied both models to increase
