Echo01:06

Echo

959
The human ear cannot distinguish between two sources of sound if they happen to reach within a specific time interval, typically 0.1 seconds apart. More than this, and they are perceived as separate sources.
Imagine the sound is reflected back to the ears. Assuming that the source is very close to the human, the difference between hearing the two sounds—the emitted sound and the reflected sound—may be more than the minimum time for perceiving distinct sounds. If this is the case,...

Water: A Bronsted-Lowry Acid and Base

58.7K
The reaction between a Brønsted-Lowry acid and water is called acid ionization. For example, when hydrogen fluoride dissolves in water and ionizes, protons are transferred from hydrogen fluoride molecules to water molecules, yielding hydronium ions and fluoride ions:

What is an Electrochemical Gradient?01:26

What is an Electrochemical Gradient?

127.8K
Adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, is considered the primary energy source in cells. However, energy can also be stored in the electrochemical gradient of an ion across the plasma membrane, which is determined by two factors: its chemical and electrical gradients.
The chemical gradient relies on differences in the abundance of a substance on the outside versus the inside of a cell and flows from areas of high to low ion concentration. In contrast, the electrical gradient revolves around an...

Range00:59

Range

14.2K
The range is one of the measures of variation. It can be defined as the difference between a dataset's highest and lowest values. For example, in the study of seven 16-ounce soda cans, the filled volume of soda was measured, thus producing the following amount (in ounces) of soda:
15.9; 16.1; 15.2; 14.8; 15.8; 15.9; 16.0; 15.5
Measurements of the amount of soda in a 16-ounce can vary since different subjects record these measurements or since the exact amount - 16 ounces of liquid, was not...

Buffer Effectiveness02:19

Buffer Effectiveness

55.2K
Buffer solutions do not have an unlimited capacity to keep the pH relatively constant . Instead, the ability of a buffer solution to resist changes in pH relies on the presence of appreciable amounts of its conjugate weak acid-base pair. When enough strong acid or base is added to substantially lower the concentration of either member of the buffer pair, the buffering action within the solution is compromised.
The buffer capacity is the amount of acid or base that can be added to a given volume...

Nervous Tissue: Myelin01:25

Nervous Tissue: Myelin

5.8K
The myelin sheath is a multilayered lipid and protein covering that insulates the axon of a neuron, enhancing the speed of nerve impulse conduction. Axons without this sheath are referred to as unmyelinated. Two types of neuroglia, Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS) are responsible for producing myelin sheaths.
Schwann cells begin to form myelin sheaths around axons during fetal development. They wrap around a small...

Summary

The choice of echo time (TE) range significantly impacts myelin water fraction (MWF) mapping accuracy. A complex 3-pool model offers more stable and less biased MWF estimation compared to magnitude models, crucial for reliable multi-echo gradient echo imaging.

Area of Science:

  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging
  • Neuroimaging
  • Biophysics

Background:

  • Myelin water fraction (MWF) mapping is vital for assessing white matter integrity.
  • Multi-echo gradient echo (GRE) techniques are commonly used for MWF estimation.
  • The influence of echo time (TE) range on MWF accuracy requires further investigation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the impact of varying TE ranges on MWF estimation using multi-echo GRE at 3 T.
  • To compare the performance of different MWF modeling approaches under diverse TE conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Simulations using a hollow cylinder model with susceptibility anisotropy were performed.
  • MWF estimation was conducted using magnitude multipool, magnitude 3-pool, and complex 3-pool models.
  • In vivo data from four healthy volunteers were analyzed using the same models and varying TE ranges.

Main Results:

  • MWF values varied significantly based on the selected TE range for magnitude-based models.
  • Magnitude models exhibited bias: up to 20% for multipool and 8% for 3-pool.
  • The complex 3-pool model demonstrated minimal bias (under 2%) and superior stability across different TE ranges, confirmed in both simulations and in vivo data.

Conclusions:

  • Magnitude-based MWF models are sensitive to the chosen TE range.
  • The complex 3-pool model effectively mitigates bias and improves the robustness of MWF estimation.
  • Selecting an appropriate model and TE range is critical for accurate myelin water imaging.
