Description
This talk will focus on diffusion NMR and MRI, which sensitises the signal to the molecular motion of water molecules. This technique can provide endogenous contrast to the microstructure of tissue. Diffusion encoding is done through applying additional field gradients, and the last decade has shown key developments in gradient hardware for more efficient encoding. The opportunities and pitfalls of strong-gradient diffusion MRI will be discussed.
