(1/4) Our recent work shows DTI-ALPS is confounded by white matter geometry (crossing fibers, undulation, dispersion), ALPS-asymmetry signature (ALPS measures asymmetry of diffusion) occurs throughout all WM, and ALPS-WM is not always orthogonal to PVS onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/TPCABU...

"Perhaps this is why it is called research rather than search" ... one of my favorite quotes (can be applied to all research) ... from Novikov's "On Modeling" pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29493816/

Our newest manuscript now in Scientific Reports. Title says it all "The relationship of white matter tract orientation to vascular geometry in the human brain" - where does WM align (and not align) with vasculature? @masi-lab.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

What’s everyone’s go-to for releasing imaging datasets? I have two small/medium sized I’d like to release. Considering openneuro, osf, NIHMS data repository, zenodo???

(1/3) New work from our lab and @masi-lab.bsky.social creating White matter brain charts across the lifespan. Brain charts for 72 pathways, both microstructure (DTI) and macrostructure (volumes, lengths) - using data from >40 harmonized population studies.

White matter microstructure and macrostructure brain charts across the human lifespan
Normative reference charts are widely used in healthcare, especially for assessing the development of individuals by benchmarking anatomic and physiological features against population trajectories ac...

Our first BSKY post and its a good one. Huge collaborative effort from the Diffusion Study Group @ismrm.bsky.social on "Considerations and recommendations from the ISMRM diffusion study group for preclinical diffusion MRI" led by @ijelescu.bsky.social & DSG team! Full papers below.
