Myelin Imaging in Brain using Inhomogeneous Magnetization Transfer(ihMT) at 3T and 7T

Demyelination is described as loss of myelin sheath in neurons which could lead to disruption in signal transmission in nervous system. Inhomogeneous Magnetization Transfer(ihMT) is a novel MRI technique used to image myelin. It uses the dipolar coupling between methyl chains in lipid layers of myelin to acquire myelin specific information. In...
