The g-ratio, the ratio between the inner and outer diameter of a myelinated axon, is of great neuroscientific interest because it is a relative measure of axonal myelination and functionally linked to conduction velocity. In vivo g-ratio mapping has been recently suggested using a flexible biophysical model that relates the microscopic g-ratio, only accessible by histology, to MRI biomarkers for the myelin and fiber compartment. This study investigates the question which MRI biomarker is optimal for MR g-ratio mapping concerning precision (determined by scan-rescan reproducibility) and accuracy (assessed by comparability to previous in vivo and the ex vivo results).
