Muscle Pennation Measured with DT-MRI 1 Quantitative Diffusion Tensor MRI-Based Fiber Tracking of Human Skeletal Muscle
Diffusion-tensor MRI (DT-MRI) offers great potential for understanding structure-function relationships in human skeletal muscles. The purposes of this study were to demonstrate the feasibility of using in vivo human DT-MRI fiber tracking data for making pennation angle measurements and to test the hypothesis that heterogeneity in the orientation of the tibialis anterior (TA) muscle’s aponeuros...

متن کاملComplex muscle architecture described with diffusion weighted MRI
The complex array of fiber orientations exhibited by muscles such as the tongue, esophagus, and heart, enable function beyond basic pulling. Among other things, the presence of crossing geometry adds the ability to push by bi-directional contraction causing expansion in the orthogonal direction. Diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI), provides a convenient, non-destructive, meth...
متن کامل* A 3D Tissue-Printing Approach for Validation of Diffusion Tensor Imaging in Skeletal Muscle.
The ability to noninvasively assess skeletal muscle microstructure, which predicts function and disease, would be of significant clinical value. One method that holds this promise is diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging (DT-MRI), which is sensitive to the microscopic diffusion of water within tissues and has become ubiquitous in neuroimaging as a way of assessing neuronal structure and d...
متن کاملClinical application of diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging in skeletal muscle.
Diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging (DTI) is increasingly applied in the detection and characterization of skeletal muscle. This promising technique has aroused much enthusiasm and generated high expectations, because it is able to provide some specific information of skeletal muscle that is not available from other imaging modalities. Compared with conventional MRI, DTI could reconstru...
