Mapping the microstructure of human cerebral cortex in vivo with diffusion MRI by Amir Sadikov, Hannah L. Choi, Jaclyn Xiao, Lanya T. Cai, Pratik Mukherjee

“…These 21 metrics are explained by four composite factors that correspond to diffusion kurtosis (intracellular volume fraction/neurite density), isotropic diffusion (free water fraction), heterogenous diffusion (extracellular volume fraction) and diffusion anisotropy (neurite orientation dispersion). We demonstrate how cortical microstructure follows cytoarchitectural and laminar differentiation, aligns with the macroscale sensory-fugal and sensorimotor-association axes, and contributes to functional brain networks, neural oscillatory dynamics, neurotransmitter receptor/transporter distributions, and cognition and behavior.…”
