From single-pulsed field gradient to double-pulsed field gradient MR: gleaning new microstructural information and developing new forms of contrast in MRI.
One of the hallmarks of diffusion NMR and MRI is its ability to utilize restricted diffusion to probe compartments much smaller than the excited volume or the MRI voxel, respectively, and to extract microstructural information from them. Single-pulsed field gradient (s-PFG) MR methodologies have been employed with great success to probe microstructures in various disciplines, ranging from chemi...

متن کاملSimulation of Double Pulsed Field Gradient Experiments
Introduction The assessment of local diffusion anisotropy in tissue using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is known to be problematic in regions that contain an admixture of tissue types or multiple fiber orientations. One approach to ameliorating this problem is to acquire high angular resolution qspace data, augmented with more sophisticated analysis schemes using higher order tensor models. Ho...
متن کاملDouble pulsed field gradient (double-PFG) MR imaging (MRI) as a means to measure the size of plant cells.
Measurement of diffusion in porous materials and biological tissues with the pulsed field gradient (PFG) MR techniques has proven useful in characterizing the microstructure of such specimens noninvasively. A natural extension of the traditional PFG technique comprises multiple pairs of diffusion gradients. This approach has been shown to provide the ability to characterize anisotropy at differ...
متن کاملCompartment shape anisotropy (CSA) revealed by double pulsed field gradient MR.
The multiple scattering extensions of the pulsed field gradient (PFG) experiments can be used to characterize restriction-induced anisotropy at different length scales. In double-PFG acquisitions that involve two pairs of diffusion gradient pulses, the dependence of the MR signal attenuation on the angle between the two gradients is a signature of restriction that can be observed even at low gr...
