Comparison of multi echo T2 relaxation and steady state approaches for myelin imaging in the central nervous system
Abstract The traditional approach for measuring myelin-associated water with quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses multi-echo T2 relaxation data to calculate the myelin water fraction (MWF). A fundamentally different approach, abbreviated “mcDESPOT”, uses a more efficient steady-state a...
