Background Random motion of water molecules (diffusion) in the presence of a strong magnetic
gradient results in MR signal loss as a result of the dephasing of spin coherence (Fig. 1)…

The objective of this study is to investigate the use of pattern classification methods for
distinguishing different types of brain tumors, such as primary gliomas from metastases, and also …

Diffusion‐tensor fiber tracking was used to identify the cores of several long‐association
fibers, including the anterior (ATR) and posterior (PTR) thalamic radiations, and the uncinate (…

Diffusion magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is evolving into a potent tool in the examination
of the central nervous system. Although it is often used for the detection of acute ischemia, …

OBJECTIVE. Diffusion kurtosis imaging is an emerging technique based on the non-gaussian
diffusion of water in biologic systems. The purpose of this article is to introduce and …

Intraaxial brain masses are a significant health problem and present several imaging
challenges. The role of imaging is no longer limited to merely providing anatomic details. …

Background: X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) has variants with widely different
outcomes, hampering clinical counseling and evaluation of therapies. Objective: To evaluate the …

This study was undertaken to compare whole-body turbo short inversion time inversion
recovery MR imaging and 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate planar scintigraphy in the …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: In human brain, the relationship between MR signal and
b value is complicated by cerebral perfusion, restricted diffusion, anisotropy, cellular …

We present a generative approach for simultaneously registering a probabilistic atlas of a
healthy population to brain magnetic resonance (MR) scans showing glioma and segmenting …
