In vivo cortical microstructure mapping using high-gradient diffusion MRI accounting for intercompartmental water exchange effects by Tanxin Dong, Hong-Hsi Lee, Han Zang, Hansol Lee, Qiyuan Tian, Liang Wan, Qiuyun Fan, SusieY. Huang

“…As such, it does not account for diffusion time dependence due to water exchange in the estimated microstructural properties, as neurites in gray matter are much less myelinated than in white matter.In this work, we performed a systematic evaluation of an extended SANDI model for in vivo human cortical microstructural mapping that accounts for water exchange effects between the neurite and extracellular compartments using the anisotropic Kärger model. …”
