BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: In hyperacute ischaemic stroke, T2 of cerebral water increases with time. Quantifying this change may be informative of the extent of tissue damage and onset time. Our objective was to develop a user-unbiased method to measu...

The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of cerebral water, as measured by diffusion MRI, rapidly decreases in ischaemia, highlighting a lesion in acute stroke patients. The MRI T2 relaxation time changes in ischaemic brain such that T2 in ADC lesion...

Observation of angular dependence of T1 in the human white matter at 3T (2019)
Journal Article
Knight, M., Damion, R., & Kauppinen, R. (2019). Observation of angular dependence of T1 in the human white matter at 3T. Biomedical Spectroscopy and Imaging, 7(3-4), 125-133. https://doi.org/10.3233/bsi-180183

Background and Objective: Multiple factors including chemical composition and microstructure influence relaxivity of tissue water in vivo. We have quantified T1 in the human white mater (WM) together with diffusion tensor imaging to study a possible...
