Mapping the microstructure properties of the local
tissues in the brain is crucial to understand any
pathological condition from a biological perspective.
Most of the existing techniques to estimate the
microstructure of the white matter assume a single axon
orientation whereas numerous regions of the brain
actually present a fiber-crossing configuration. The
purpose of the present study is to extend a recent
convex optimization framework to recover microstructure
parameters in regions with multiple fibers.
