Tuned bipolar oscillating gradients for mapping frequency dispersion of diffusion kurtosis in the human brain

Abstract: Oscillating gradient spin-echo (OGSE) sequences have demonstrated an ability to probe time-dependent microstructural features, although they often suffer from low SNR due to increased TEs. In this work we introduce frequency-tuned bipolar (FTB) gradients as a variation of oscillating gradients with reduced TE and demonstrate their utility by mapping the frequency dispersion of kurtosis in human subjects.Methods: An FTB oscillating gradient waveform is presented that provides encoding of 1.5 net oscillation per… Show more

“…With clinical MRI gradient systems, recent time-dependent DKI studies with PGSE and STEAM have captured the long-time limit of kurtosis (Δ eff from 21.2 to 100 ms for PGSE; Δ eff from 100 to 800 ms for STEAM) ( Lee et al, 2020 ; Solomon et al, 2023 ). The short-time limit of kurtosis for in vivo human brains has been preliminarily evidenced in a recent study with single-frequency OGSE and single-time PGSE acquisitions ( Borsos et al, 2023 ). In our study, by leveraging the high-performance MAGNUS gradient MRI system, we characterize the trend of decreasing kurtosis over frequency in the short-time limit (or equivalently, the positive correlation between kurtosis and effective diffusion times Δ eff from 4.0 to 14.2 ms) more comprehensively using multi-frequency OGSE, which agrees with and expands previous findings ( Borsos et al, 2023 ).…”

The trend of decreasing kurtosis over frequency may mainly be attributed to more frequent interactions of water molecules with membranes or barriers at lower frequencies (or equivalently, longer diffusion times) ( Aggarwal et al, 2020 ).…”
