q-space imaging (QSI) is an advanced diffusion-weighted
imaging technique to explore the water displacement
profile. The purpose of this study is to assess the
effects of maximal b value and sampling interval on
water displacement profile in simulation and validate it
in clinical application of the brain. Our preliminary
finding demonstrated that the proposed sampling pattern
provides an alternative to obtain QSI images and
reliable MD and ZDP measurements with a shorter
acquisition time, which may be helpful in the
implementation of in vivo brain q-space imaging in
clinical application.
