Effects of diffusion MRI spatial resolution on human brain short-range association fiber reconstruction and structural connectivity estimation | A/Prof. Qiyuan Tian
Short-range association fibers (SAFs) are critical for cortical communications but are often underestimated in conventional resolution diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) since they locate within a ~1.5 mm thin layer of superficial white matter. With the advent of high-resolution diffusion imaging techniques, this study evaluated the effects of image spatial resolution on SAF reconstruction using two datasets: (1) prospectively acquired dMRI data from 20 healthy subjects, each scanned...
