چکیده
We provide scientific background information and personal accounts relating to our publication of "Microstructural and Physiological Features of Tissues Elucidated by Quantitative-Diffusion-Tensor MRI" in the Journal of Magnetic Resonance B. This paper provided a framework for measuring and mapping intrinsic features of diffusion anisotropy obtained from diffusion tensor MRI (DTI) data.

Evaluation of Diffusion Anisotropy and Diffusion Shape in Grading of Glial Tumors
Background: The most common primary tumors of brain are gliomas. Grading of tumor is vital for designing proper treatment plans. The gold standard choice to determine the grade of glial tumor is biopsy which is an invasive method.Objective: In this study, we try to investigate the role of fractional anisotropy (diffusion anisotropy) and linear anisotropy ...
متن کاملToward a quantitative assessment of diffusion anisotropy.
Indices of diffusion anisotropy calculated from diffusion coefficients acquired in two or three perpendicular directions are rotationally variant. In living monkey brain, these indices severely underestimate the degree of diffusion anisotropy. New indices calculated from the entire diffusion tensor are rotationally invariant (RI). They show that anisotropy is highly variable in different white ...
متن کاملImpact of anisotropy level of gas diffusion layer on the temperature distribution of a PEM fuel cell cathode electrode
Proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells being employed in fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) are promising power generators producing electric power from fuel stream via porous electrodes. Structure of carbon paper gas diffusion layers (GDLs) applying in the porous electrodes can have a great influence on the PEM fuel cell performance and distribution of temperature, especially at the cathode side whe...
متن کاملAnisotropy of HARDI Diffusion Profiles based on the L-Norm
The fractional anisotropy (FA) value for Diffusion Tensor Imaging is widely used to determine the anisotropy of diffusion in a given voxel. As the FA value is based on the tensor’s eigenvectors it is not possible to calculate this quantity for HARDI diffusion profiles. In this paper we introduce an anisotropy index for HARDI data that utilizes the L-norm as the most natural notion of distance f...
