Abstract
This is the third of three chapters on diffusion MRI acquisition for tractography. Tractography is performed extensively in the in vivo adult brain, and sequences used for the in vivo adult brain have been covered in detail in Chapter 7. However, tractography is also performed in ex vivo human brain, in both the in vivo and ex vivo animal brain of various nonhuman species, in the human brain during all stages of development, and outside the brain. All these applications require some modification of the diffusion encoding sequence. This chapter outlines considerations for scanning for the purpose of tractography in these cases.
