diffusion spectrum imaging
Posted on August 26, 2008
At the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston researchers are using an MRI technique called diffusion spectrum imaging to create three dimensional models of the brains of animals and humans.MIT Technology Review describes this promising imaging modality:It uses magnetic resonance signals to track the movement of water molecules in the brain: water diffuses along the length of neural wires, called axons. Scientists can use these diffusion measurements to map the wires, creating a detailed blueprint of the brain's connectivity.On the medical side, radiologists are beginning to use the technolo...
