Sodium ion apparent diffusion coefficient in living rat brain.
The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of Na(+) was determined in live rat brain. The brain extracellular-to-intracellular Na(+) content ratio is approximately 8:2, which is the inverse of that for water in these spaces. Consequently, the ADC of Na(+) is primarily affected by motion in the extracellular space, and Na(+) can be viewed as a reporter molecule for motion in that space. Likewise, ...
متن کاملExtracellular apparent diffusion in rat brain.
The apparent diffusion coefficients (ADCs) of a series of markers concentrated in the extracellular space of normal rat brain were measured to evaluate, by inference, the ADC of water in the extracellular space. The markers (mannitol, phenylphosphonate, and polyethylene glycols) are defined as "compartment selective" because tissue culture experiments demonstrate some leakage into the intracell...
متن کاملBiexponential apparent diffusion coefficient parametrization in adult vs newborn brain.
The decay of brain water signal with b-factor in adult and newborn brains has been measured over an extended b-factor range. Measurements of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) decay curves were made at 16 b-factors from 100 to 5000 s/mm(2) along three orthogonal directions using a line scan diffusion imaging (LSDI) sequence to acquire data from 0.09 ml voxels in a mid-brain axial slice. R...
متن کاملApparent Diffusion Coefficient Mapping Using a Multi-Shot Spiral MRI Sequence of the Rat Brain
Purpose: Commonly used diffusion weighted (DW) imaging such as DW spin echo (SE) type echo planar imaging (DW-SE-EPI) is known to be a snapshot-like acquisition and to have a relatively high signal-to-noise ratio. Spiral MRI sequence (SPIRAL) has characteristics similar to these of EPI, but it has rarely been used for diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). In vivo DW-SPIRAL of the rat brain has almo...
متن کاملOptimised diffusion-weighting for measurement of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) in human brain.
This work studies the effect of diffusion-weighting on the precision of measurements of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC, or D) by diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging. The precision in the value of the ADC was described in terms of a diffusion-to-noise ratio (DNR) which was calculated as the signal-to-noise ratio in the resultant ADC. A theoretical analysis decomposed the DNR i...
