Diffusion imaging has enormous potential for
quantitative measurements of geometric properties that
are directly relevant to brain function and pathology.
We combine diffusion spectrum models of the intra- and
extra-axonal space, where axons are idealized as
randomly packed, parallel, impermeable cylinders with a
distribution of radii. Model predictions are compared
with Monte Carlo simulations and the model is fitted to
diffusion spectra measured in brain specimens. The model
accurately captures salient properties of the simulated
diffusion spectra and estimates microstructural
properties of the tissue that are in agreement with
those found in literature.
