Abstract

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) acquisitions allows the comparison of diffusion characteristics in vivo and gives a unique insight into tissue structure and pathology. However, a limitation of DTI post-processing is the as-sumption of a Gaussian distribution of diffusion in neu-ral architecture. Free water modelling aims to address this issue, and we present the second application of FA of tissue and free water mapping.
