Micro- and ultrastructural properties of skeletal muscle have a direct impact on function and modulate the diffusion of both water and metabolites. Anomalous diffusion models can be used to characterize non-Gaussian diffusion and specifically subdiffusive dynamics, which are expected to reflect ultra-structural tissue properties. Here, we present fits of the single-parameter Mittag-Leffler diffusion model to diffusion weighted spectroscopy data, showing subdiffusive motions of skeletal muscle water and metabolites.
