The mean apparent propagator (MAP) MRI is an advanced diffusion model proposed recently for brain microstructure imaging. In this study, the MAP-MRI model was applied in diagnosis of migraineurs patient without aura. The results found that the parameter of MAP-MRI showed significant differences in in superior frontal gyrus, temporal lobe, cingulate gyrus, parahippocampal gyrus, hippocampus and left amygdata in MWoAs between patients and healthy controls. These findings further suggest involvement of the gray matter in pathology of migraine without aura.
