Parametric Representation of Multiple White Matter Fascicles from Cube and Sphere Diffusion MRI
The characterization of the complex diffusion signal arising from the brain remains an open problem. Many representations focus on characterizing the global shape of the diffusion profile at each voxel and are limited to the assessment of connectivity. In contrast, Multiple Fascicle Models (MFM) seek to represent the contribution from each white matter fascicle and may be useful in the investig...

متن کاملCharacterizing Complex White Matter Structure from Cube and Sphere Diffusion Imaging with a Multi-Fiber Model (CUSP- MFM)
Introduction. Multi-tensor models are of great interest for clinical applications because they enable the assessment of the white matter microstructure of individual fiber bundles in addition to the brain connectivity. In this work we propose a novel acquisition scheme and a novel fitting procedure for estimating the parameters of a multi-compartment model with two tensors and free water diffus...
متن کاملQuantitative analysis of cerebral white matter anatomy from diffusion MRI
In this thesis we develop algorithms for quantitative analysis of white matter fiber tracts from diffusion MRI. The presented methods enable us to look at the variation of a diffusion measure along a fiber tract in a single subject or a population, which allows important clinical studies toward understanding the relation between the changes in the diffusion measures and brain diseases, developm...
متن کاملDesign and Validation of Diffusion MRI Models of White Matter
Diffusion MRI is arguably the method of choice for characterizing white matter microstructure in vivo. Over the typical duration of diffusion encoding, the displacement of water molecules is conveniently on a length scale similar to that of the underlying cellular structures. Moreover, water molecules in white matter are largely compartmentalized which enables biologically-inspired compartmenta...
