Synopsis
A protocol, including Gadolinium-DOTA perfusion or immersion and Diffusion-Weighted multi-shot Spin-Echo EPI was developed to obtain 100μm isotropic resolution tractogram on ex vivo mouse brain. A 3mM Gd-DOTA concentration combined with 16 EPI shots at short TR (400 ms) allows to whole-brain tractograms of excellent quality and reproducible on the 15 mouse brains analyzed.
