Abstract:Joint modeling of diffusion and relaxation has seen growing interest due to its potential to provide complementary information about tissue microstructure. For brain white matter (WM), we designed an optimal diffusion‐relaxometry MRI protocol that samples multiple b‐values, B‐tensor shapes, and echo times (TE). This variable‐TE protocol (27 min) has as subsets a fixed‐TE protocol (15 min) and a two‐shell dMRI protocol (7 min), both characterizing diffusion only. We assessed the sensitivity, specificity, and re… Show more
