This work develops a super-resolution reconstruction (SRR) technique that constructs isotropic high-resolution diffusion-weighted images (DWI) from multiple anisotropic low-resolution acquisitions. The technique will enable the mapping of tissue microstructure for fine brain structures without the need for prohibitively long imaging time. It advances the state-of-the-art by adopting a model-based approach to directly super-resolve the parameter maps of the underlying tissue microstructure.
