非侵入性地映射轴突大小是神经科学家感兴趣的,并且可能具有显著的临床潜力,因为神经传导速度直接取决于轴突大小。目前使用扩散加权MRI测量轴突尺寸的方法,例如具有脉冲梯度自旋回波(PGSE)序列的q空间成像,通常需要长扫描时间和高q值来检测小轴突(直径<2 μm)。振荡梯度自旋回波(OGSE)方法已被证明能够实现非常短的扩散时间,因此可能能够以高灵敏度检测较小的轴突。在当前的研究中,进行OGSE实验以测量模拟人类中枢神经系统中轴突的尺寸范围(~1.5-19.3 μm)的中空微毛细管的内径。结果表明,OGSE测量,即使只有适度高的频率,是高度敏感的隔间大小,和最低限度的两个ADC值与不同的频率可能足以准确地提取微毛细管的大小。这表明OGSE方法可以作为一种快速和稳健的测量方法,用于非侵入性地映射轴突尺寸。
Mapping axon sizes non-invasively is of interest for neuroscientists and may have significant clinical potential because nerve conduction velocity is directly dependent on axon size. Current approaches to measuring axon sizes using diffusion-weighted MRI, e.g. q-space imaging with pulsed gradient spin echo (PGSE) sequences usually require long scan times and high q-values to detect small axons (diameter <2 μm). The oscillating gradient spin echo (OGSE) method has been shown to be able to achieve very short diffusion times and hence may be able to detect smaller axons with high sensitivity. In the current study, OGSE experiments were performed to measure the inner diameters of hollow microcapillaries with a range of sizes (~1.5–19.3 μm) that mimic axons in the human central nervous system. The results suggest that OGSE measurements, even with only moderately high frequencies, are highly sensitive to compartment sizes, and a minimum of two ADC values with different frequencies may be sufficient to extract the microcapillary size accurately. This suggests that the OGSE method may serve as a fast and robust measurement method for mapping axon sizes non-invasively.
