Intravoxel Incoherent Motion (IVIM) is a noninvasive diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging method, which can separate intravoxel signal into classical diffusion and perfusion-related contributions. Its combination with perfusion-weighted images (Arterial Spin Labeling, ASL) enables quantitative assessment of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability without using exogenous contra…
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease that can lead to dementia. Although the etiology is still not well established, studies point to increasing support for the vascular hypothesis of Neurofibrillary Tangles, in contrast to the Senile Plaques theory. Therefore, changes in cerebral hemodynamics can be observed even before the clinical symptoms of the disease. An importan…
Parkinson's Disease (PD) can be considered a multi-systemic neurodegenerative disease resulting from dysfunction in several neural circuits. The main objective of this study is to evaluate resting brain functional connectivity using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and correlate it with non-motor symptoms in patients with PD (with a recent diagnosis and still without any intervention). Th…
Magnetic resonance images (MRI) stand out for their non-invasive nature and for providing different contrast mechanisms, highlighting different characteristics of biological tissues. One of these contrast mechanisms is based on the movement of spins through both diffusion and perfusion processes. A diffusion-weighted imaging method called Intravoxel Incoherent Motion (IVIM) uses magnetic …
