In 7 to 15-year-old operated syndromic craniosynostosis patients, we have shown the presence of microstructural anomalies in brain white matter by using DTI. To learn more about the cause of these ano...
DTI datasets of 51 non-operated patients with syndromic craniosynostosis with a median [IQR] age of 0.40 [0.25] years were compared with 17 control subjects with a median of 1.20 [0.85] years. Major w...

Syndromic craniosynostosis shows not to be a significant factor influencing the major white matter tracts. Enlargement of the ventricles show to be a significant factor on radial diffusivity in the tr...

We explore the possibility of using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging (NODDI) to discern microstructural abnormalities in the hippocampus indicative...
We analyzed data from 57 patients with refractory epilepsy who previously underwent 3.0-T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) including DTI as a standard part of presurgical workup. We collected informat...
By examining diffusion characteristics among subfields in the final diagnostic categories, we found lower orientation dispersion indices and elevated axial diffusivity in the dentate gyrus in MTS comp...
The results suggest that diffusion metric analysis at the subfield level, especially in dentate gyrus and CA1, maybe useful for clinical confirmation of MTS....
Peripheral neuropathy affects 1 in 10 adults over the age of 40 years. Given the absence of a reliable diagnostic test for peripheral neuropathy, there has been a surge of research into diffusion tens...
The aim of this study is to quantitatively investigate the microstructural properties of the optic nerve (ON) in vivo using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in patients with unilateral optic atrophy (OA...
Magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) can detect microstructural changes in peripheral nerves. Studies have reported that the median nerve apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), a quantific...
In order to assess the value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in microscopic brain scans. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRI)...
To compare the histogram features of multiple diffusion metrics in predicting the grade and cellular proliferation of meningiomas....
Diffusion spectrum imaging was performed in 122 meningiomas (30 males, 13-84 years), which were divided into 31 high-grade meningiomas (HGMs, grades 2 and 3) and 91 low-grade meningiomas (LGMs, grade ...
The DKI_AK (axial kurtosis) maximum, DKI_AK range, MAP_RTPP (return-to-plane probability) maximum, MAP_RTPP range, NODDI_ICVF (intracellular volume fraction) range, and NODDI_ICVF maximum values were ...
Whole tumour histogram analyses of the multiple diffusion metrics from four diffusion models are promising methods in grading meningiomas. The DTI model has similar diagnostic performance compared wit...
• Whole tumour histogram analyses of multiple diffusion models are feasible for grading meningiomas. • The DKI, MAP, and NODDI metrics are weakly associated with the Ki-67 proliferation status. • DTI ...
To evaluate the use of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) for detection of microstructural changes in the trigeminal nerves of trigeminal neuralgia (TN) patients....
Forty TN patients and 40 healthy controls were examined using 3 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to evaluate DTI and DKI parameters in trigeminal nerves. One-way ANOVA was used to test the differenc...
Compared to the unaffected sides and controls, the FA, MK, and Kr of the affected sides of TN patients were significantly reduced, while ADC was significantly increased (p < 0.05). The diagnostic effi...
DTI and DKI allowed detection of microstructural changes in TN-affected trigeminal nerves. FA DR was the best independent predictor of microstructural changes in TN....
Both DTI and DKI can be used for noninvasive quantitative evaluation of the changes in the microstructure of the cisternal segment of the cranial nerves in clinical practice....
• Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) can be used to evaluate the in vivo integrity of white matter and nerve fiber pathway. • Diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) has been shown to be considerable sensitive t...
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and Bipolar Disorder Depression (BDD) are common psychiatric illnesses characterized by structural and functional brain alterations and signs of neuroinflammation. In l...
Depression, a leading cause of disability worldwide, is also the most prevalent psychiatric problem among Parkinson disease patients. Both depression and Parkinson disease are associated with microstr...
