Examining Tissue Microstructure with Temporal Diffusion Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) is a noninvasive imaging technique that can be used to quantify the rate of self-diffusion of water molecules. In biological tissues the mobility of water molecules is hindered by nuclear and cellular membranes, as well as by the presence of int...
