Fractional Order Complexity Model of the Diffusion Signal Decay in MRI

Fractional calculus models are steadily being incorporated into descriptions of diffusion in complex, heterogeneous materials. Biological tissues, when viewed using diffusion-weighted, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), hinder and restrict the diffusion of water at the molecular, sub-cellular, and ce...
