Comparison of modelled diffusion-derived electrical conductivities found using magnetic resonance imaging by Sasha Hakhu, Leland S. Hu, Scott Beeman, Rosalind J. Sadleir

“…This study investigates the variability in conductivity predictions across different microstructure models and evaluates their alignment with experimental observations.MethodsWe used publicly available diffusion databases from neurotypical adults to extract microstructure parameters for three diffusion-based brain models: Neurite Orientation Dispersion and Density Imaging (NODDI), Soma and Neurite Density Imaging (SANDI), and Spherical Mean technique (SMT) conductivity predictions were calculated for gray matter (GM) and white matter (WM) tissues using each model. Comparative analyses were performed to assess the range of predicted conductivities and the consistency between bilateral tissue conductivities for each method.ResultsSignificant variability in conductivity estimates was observed across the three models. …”
