## Abstract In vivo longitudinal diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) of rodent spinal cord injury (SCI) was carried out over a period of eight weeks post‐injury. A balanced, rotationally invariant, alternating gradient polarity icosahedral diffusion encoding scheme was used for an unbiased estimation of
## Abstract Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has the potential to provide important information about the integrity of white matter tracts in injured spinal cord tissue. It is thought that DTI‐based transverse diffusivity (λ~__t__~) reflects the state of myelin, whereas longitudinal diffusivity (λ~__
