## Abstract ## Purpose To describe a technique for the detection of distinct brain fibers in sets of magnetic resonance (MR) diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data. ## Materials and Methods MRβDTI can be used for a tractography of brain fibers presuming a data set of high spatial resolution and hig

## Abstract The dependence of 1 / __T__~1~ on the magnetic field strength (the relaxation dispersion) has been measured at 37Β°C on autopsy samples of human brain gray and white matter at field strengths corresponding to proton Larmor frequencies between 10 kHz and 50 MHz (0.0002β1.2 T). Additional
The diffusion time dependence of the brain water diffusion tensor provides information regarding diffusion restriction and hindrance but has received little attention, primarily due to limitations in gradient amplitude available on clinical MRI systems, required to achieve short diffusion times. Usi
Healthy human brain diffusion anisotropy maps derived from standard spin echo diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) were compared with those using fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) preparation prior to DTI to null the signal from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Consistent comparisons entailed developm
## Abstract __T__~2~ of cortical gray matter is generally assumed to be longer than that of white matter. It is shown here that this is not the case in the occipital lobe, but that this effect is often obscured at lower resolution and concealed in standard __T__~2~βweighted images. Using a highβres
## Abstract In vivo longitudinal relaxation times of __N__βacetyl compounds (NA), cholineβcontaining substances (Cho), creatine (Cr), __myo__βinositol (mI), and tissue water were measured at 1.5 and 3 T using a pointβresolved spectroscopy (PRESS) sequence with short echo time (TE). __T__~1~ values
