In this study, we combine OGSE and PGSE measurements to
probe the short diffusion time ([1.2-30]ms) dependence
of ADC in a GBM. Based on tumor microenvironment
modeling, parametric maps of Extracellular Space (ECS),
Cell Radius and ECS free diffusivity are derived,
showing high ECS heterogeneity inside the tumor and
positive correlation of ECS with PGSE-ADC at long
diffusion times. Fitting on ex vivo ADC measurements
performed with a MR microcoil on 100um thick fixed brain
slices are compared to cellular membrane immuno-staining
(GLUT1) to validate ECS quantification. Regions of
high/low ECS correlate with regions of low/high cell
volume fraction.
