The link between diffusion MRI and tumor heterogeneity: Mapping cell eccentricity and density by diffusional variance decomposition (DIVIDE)
The structural heterogeneity of tumor tissue can be probed by diffusion MRI (dMRI) in terms of the variance of apparent diffusivities within a voxel. However, the link between the diffusional variance and the tissue heterogeneity is not well-established. To investigate this link we test the hypothesis that diffusional variance, caused by microscopic anisotropy and isotropic heterogeneity, is as...
متن کاملA normal distribution for tensor-valued random variables to analyze diffusion tensor MRI data
Diffusion Tensor MRI (DT-MRI) provides a statistical estimate of a symmetric 2 nd -order diffusion tensor, D, for each voxel within an imaging volume. We propose a new normal distribution, p(D) ~ exp(1/2 D:A:D), for a tensor random variable, D. The scalar invariant, D:A:D, is the contraction of a positive definite symmetric 4 th -order precision tensor, A , and D. A formal correspondence is est...

متن کاملDiffusion Tensor MRI Visualization
Diffusion Tensor Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DT-MRI or DTI) is emerging as an important technology for elucidating the internal structure of the brain and for diagnosing conditions affecting the integrity of nervous tissue. DTI measurements of the brain exploit the fact that the network of fibers has a characteristic microstructure that constrains the diffusion of water molecules within it. The...
