Research Abstract

We focused a unique water diffusivity restricted by myelin structure and developed its imaging method using magnetic resonance imaging(MRI). Because of the non-invasiveness and myelin specificity, this method could be a powerful diagnosis tool for the investigation of the process of neurological and psychological diseases, with which the myelin disruption is potentially associated.
