Principles Of Diffusion MRI

This module introduces the essential principles of diffusion weighted imaging and explains how technologists evaluate water motion within tissues. It describes how diffusion supports assessment of stroke tumors infection and white matter abnormalities. The content highlights the importance of b values echo time and sequence selection. It also explains how technologists reduce artifacts using parallel imaging and motion control. The module emphasizes the importance of communication with radiologists to ensure protocol accuracy. By understanding diffusion MRI technologists can support high quality diagnostic imaging.
