TLDR
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a recently developed MRI technique that can measure macroscopic axonal organization in nervous system tissues and several applications are introduced, including visualization of axonal tracts in myelin and axonal injuries as well as human brain and mouse embryonic development.About:

Resting-State Functional Connectivity Reflects Structural Connectivity in the Default Mode Network
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that resting-state functional connectivity reflects structural connectivity and that combining modalities can enrich the understanding of these canonical brain networks.

TL;DR: The novel M-EPI pulse sequence resulted in a significantly increased temporal resolution for whole brain fMRI, and as such, this new methodology can be used for studying non-stationarity in networks and generally for expanding and enriching the functional information.

TL;DR: Experimental studies with the real-time iontophoresis method employing the cation tetramethylammonium in normal brain tissue improve the conception of ECS structure and the roles of glia and extracellular matrix in modulating the ECS microenvironment.

MRI quantification of non-Gaussian water diffusion by kurtosis analysis.
Jens H. Jensen,Joseph A. Helpern +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that the diffusional kurtosis is sensitive to diffusional heterogeneity and suggested that DKI may be useful for investigating ischemic stroke and neuropathologies, such as Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia.

Spin diffusion measurements : spin echoes in the presence of a time-dependent field gradient
E. O. Stejskal,J. E. Tanner +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a derivation of the effect of a time-dependent magnetic field gradient on the spin-echo experiment, particularly in the presence of spin diffusion, is given.
Journal ArticleDOI
MR diffusion tensor spectroscopy and imaging.
TL;DR: Once Deff is estimated from a series of NMR pulsed-gradient, spin-echo experiments, a tissue's three orthotropic axes can be determined and the effective diffusivities along these orthotropic directions are the eigenvalues of Deff.

The basis of anisotropic water diffusion in the nervous system – a technical review
TL;DR: The purpose of this review is to characterize the relationship of nuclear magnetic resonance measurements of water diffusion and its anisotropy (i.e. directional dependence) with the underlying microstructure of neural fibres.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-dimensional tracking of axonal projections in the brain by magnetic resonance imaging.
TL;DR: It is shown that neuronal pathways in the rat brain can be probed in situ using high‐resolution three‐dimensional diffusion magnetic resonance imaging and a newly designed tracking approach.
