Empirical Estimation of Intra-Voxel Structure with Persistent Angular Structure and Q-ball Models of Diffusion Weighted MRI

The diffusion tensor model is non-specific in regions where micrometer structural patterns are inconsistent at the millimeter scale (i.e., brain regions with pathways that cross, bend, branch, fan, etc.). Numerous models have been proposed to represent crossing fibers and complex intra-voxel structu...
