  1. 1. Biophysical modelling in diffusion MRI: The role of tissue microstructure and water exchange

    Författare :Markus Nilsson; Lund Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Diffusion; MRI; tissue microstructure; water exchange; Monte Carlo simulations; white matter;

    Sammanfattning : Diffusion MRI is widely used to study brain structure in vivo. While this technique is often applied to investigations of brain connectivity, it can also be used to infer specific information about the tissue microstructure; for example, to estimate the axon diameter. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Probing brain microstructure with multidimensional diffusion MRI: Encoding, interpretation, and the role of exchange

    Författare :Björn Lampinen; Lund Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MRI; Diffusion; Human; Brain; Microstructure; Fysicumarkivet A:2021:Lampinen;

    Sammanfattning : Diffusion MRI (dMRI) is a non-invasive probe of human brain microstructure. It is a long-standing promise to use dMRI for ‘in vivo histology’ and estimate tissue quantities. However, this faces several challenges. First, the microstructure models used for dMRI data are based on assumptions that may cause erroneous interpretations. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Developing novel diffusion MRI methods for comprehensive analysis of restricted and anisotropic self-diffusion system

    Författare :Hong Jiang; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MRI; diffusion; tissue microstructure; heterogeneity; diffusion encoding; q-vector; ;

    Sammanfattning : Diffusion MRI is a non-invasive imaging technique used to study the microstructural properties of biological tissues by observing the self-diffusion of water molecules. Traditional diffusion MRI methods, based on the pulsed gradient spin-echo sequence, employ magnetic field gradients to encode information about translational motion. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Diffusion MRI with generalised gradient waveforms : methods, models, and neuroimaging applications

    Författare :Deneb Boito; Evren Özarslan; Magnus Herberthson; Anders Eklund; Ida Blystad; Frederik Laun; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Diffusion; Diffusion MRI; Microstructure; Brain; White matter; Microscopic anisotropy; Constrained optimisation;

    Sammanfattning : The incessant, random motion of water molecules within biological tissues reveals unique information about the tissues’ structural and functional characteristics. Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging is sensitive to this random motion, and since the mid-1990s it has been extensively employed for studying the human brain. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Synthesis and Characterization of Transition Metal Diborides

    Författare :Jimmy Thörnberg; Johanna Rosén; Per Persson; Helmut Riedl; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DCMS; HiPIMS; Titanium Diboride; Titanium Aluminum Diboride; Chromium Diboride; Microstructure; Hardness; Oxidation Resistance;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is devoted towards physical vapor deposition (PVD) of thin films of transition-metal (TM) diborides, focused on the material system TiBx, Ti1-xAlxB2-y and CrBx. The metal diborides are a large family of compounds with both metallic and ceramic properties, due to its bonding nature being a mix of covalent and ionic bonds. LÄS MER
