We have recently extended conventional
single-pulsed-field-gradient (s-PFG) DKI to double-PFG
(d-PFG) diffusion MRI sequence, known as double-pulsed
DKI (DP-DKI). Owing to the fact that DKI isolates the
second order contributions to the d-PFG signal, the 6D
diffusional kurtosis encodes unique information beyond
that available from s-PFG sequences. This study
demonstrates the feasibility of in vivo human DP-DKI at
3 T.
