Two-pool modeling of magnetization transfer (MT) effects
yields a unique set of measures sensitive to different
tissue composition properties. The key parameter of
interest in this model is a macromolecular pool fraction
(MPF), a potential biomarker of myelin in neural
tissues. However, traditional MPF mapping within
clinical scan time is a relatively low-resolution
methodology. The purpose of this work was to develop a
clinically feasible, high resolution, motion corrected
MPF mapping protocol compatible with clinical standards
for GM assessment (~1 mm isotropic, under 30 min).
