چکیده

A Wideband diffusion tensor imaging is successfully performed to acquire two images in one single excitation. 2-slices are excited/acquired simultaneously using 2D Wideband modified pulse-gradient spin-echo sequence. The calculated diffusion tensors of the grapefruit are clearly displayed on the eigenvector map, and proven to be correct. The result of this study directly indicates a reduction of more than half the time for diffusion tensor imaging of large coverage such as whole brain DT

Diffusion Tensor Imaging for Glioma Grading: Analysis of Fiber Density Index

Introduction: The most common primary tumors of brain are gliomas and tumor grading is essential for designing proper treatment strategies. The gold standard choice to determine grade of glial tumor is biopsy which is an invasive method. The purpose of this study was to investigatethe role of fiber density index (FDi) by means of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) (as a noninvasive method) in glial...
