Fast in vivo high-resolution diffusion MRI of the human cervical spinal cord microstructure
Original language description
Diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging (dMRI) is a widely-utilized method for assessment of microstructural properties in the central nervous system i.e., the brain and spinal cord (SC). In the SC, almost all previous human studies utilized Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI), which cannot accurately model areas where white matter (WM) pathways cross or diverge. While High Angular Diffusion Resolution Imaging (HARDI) can overcome some of these limitations, longer acquisition times critically limit its applicability to clinical human studies. In addition, previous human HARDI studies have used limited spatial resolution, with typically a few slices and voxel size ~1 × 1 × 5 mm 3 being acquired in tens of minutes. Thus, we have optimized a novel fast HARDI protocol that allows collecting dMRI data at high angular and spatial resolutions in clinically-feasible time.
