In a recent study, we proposed a method for fast and direct estimation of
mictrostructural tissue parameters such as intra/extraaxonal volume fraction
and diffusivities based on multishell DWI. In this study, we report the first
method application to human gliomas and demonstrate connections of
microstructural parameters with genetic markers IDH and 1p19q in a group of 32
patients.
