In this study, a new 3D myelin water imaging sequence
that covers the entire brain (FOV = 240 240 128
mm^3; resolution = 1.5 1.5 4 mm^3) in less than 8
minutes was developed. This method is based on a
recently proposed novel approach to MWI, called Direct
Visualization of Short Transverse Relaxation Time
Component (ViSTa). It provides a high quality myelin
water fraction map.
