This lecture explains the physics of diffusion tensor imaging, fractional anisotropy, and tractography for clinical neuroimaging.

Diffusion Tensor Imaging… Math so scary that even Einstein ran for help! Why the switch from DWI to DTI? What is a tensor, this term Fractional Anisotropy, and why would you spend your time watching this video when you could be watching cat videos and actually enjoying life? Because there are SO MANY cat videos, and SO FEW videos going into the weeds on this critically important subject. So say your goodbyes to Felix and let’s tackle Diffusion Tensor Imaging on the latest episode of MRI Physics Explained! CHAPTERS Intro/Recap Isotropic vs. Anisotropic Diffusion Why DWI is Not Enough The Diffusion Tensor Solving the Diffusion Tensor Matrix Tractography Fractional Anisotropy (FA) Outro Like these lectures and want more?

Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI, FA, Tractography) Hello all my neurology friends, just wanted to share a lecture on explaining Diffusion Tensor Imaging that you may find helpful when reviewing your patients' MRI imaging. It’s a bit technical but visual heavy, enjoy!
