This is the first in vivo application of magnetic
resonance fingerprinting in a large sample of normal
subjects. MRF based relaxometry proves to be a fast and
accurate tool to quantify microstructural patterns in
brain based on aging, gender differences and differences
between hemispheres. The study shows that aging related
differences are seen more conspicuosly in certain brain
regions over others. These findings not only serve to
enhance understanding of physiological variations but
also can serve as reference for evaluating various
pathological states.
