✦ Synopsis

Pulsed field gradient NMR measurements of rat lung tissue have shown that the apparent water self-diffusion coefficient is nearly an order of magnitude smaller than that of free water and moreover is not constant but varies as the inverse square root of the diffusion time. The mean square displacement of water molecules is similarly proportional to the square root of the diffusion time. Possible origins of this non-Brownian behavior are discussed.

The purpose of this paper is to present an overview of the diffusive behavior of water in biological tissues. The analysis shows that obstructive barriers would have to occupy very large volume fractions in order to account for the reduction in the diffusion coefficient (D) observed in biological sy

## Abstract With magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, brain water self‐diffusion was measured in 17 healthy volunteers 22–76 (mean, 44.6) years old. The calculated values for the apparent diffusion coefficients (ADCs) ranged from 0.58 × 10^−9^ to 1.23 × 10^−9^ m^2^/sec in cerebral white matter. A signi

The principal values of the diffusion tensor of free water in the pores of sheep Achilles tendon were determined. For this purpose, the azimuthally angular dependence of the self-diffusion coefficient was measured using a radiofrequency tilt coil and pulsed-field-gradient stimulated-echo (PFGSE) NMR
