PURPOSE: To establish quantitative standards for the directionally averaged water apparent
diffusion coefficient (D) and quantitative diffusion anisotropy (A sigma) of normal brains in …

Application of resting state functional connectivity magnetic resonance imaging (fcMRI) to
the study of prematurely born infants enables assessment of the earliest forms of cerebral …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Conventional MR imaging findings of human brain
development are thought to result from decreasing water content, increasing macromolecular …

Cerebral cortical development involves a complex cascade of events which are difficult to
visualize in intact, living subjects. In this study, we apply diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) to the …

OBJECTIVE. MR imaging of central nervous system (CNS) malignancies falls short of a
definitive evaluation. Tissue diagnosis remains the gold standard. Diffusion-tensor MR imaging …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: WM injury is the dominant form of injury in preterm infants.
However, other cerebral structures, including the deep gray matter and the cerebellum, can …

BACKGROUND: To define the nature and frequency of brain injury and brain growth impairment
in very preterm (VPT) infants by using MRI at term-equivalent age and to relate these …

This review covers the fundamentals of diffusion tensor imaging. It is written with the
clinician in mind and assumes the reader has a passing familiarity with magnetic resonance …

OBJECTIVE To investigate the impact of new-onset diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) during
childhood on brain morphology and function. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Patients …

Formalin fixation of tissue is a common laboratory practice. A direct comparison of diffusion
tensor imaging (DTI) parameters from mouse brains before (in vivo) and after (ex vivo) …
