The role of iron and myelin in orientation dependent R2* of white matter
Brain myelin and iron content are important parameters in neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS). Both myelin and iron content influence the brain's R2 * relaxation rate. However, their quantification based on R2 * maps requires a realistic tissue model that can be fitted to...
