Article Synopsis
- Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a new method for imaging peripheral nerves that helps visualize their microstructure and connectivity, enhancing traditional MRI techniques.
- DTI can create 3D representations of nerve pathways and quantitatively assess nerve health, offering valuable insights for diagnosing nerve issues.
- Despite its potential, DTI faces technical challenges related to imaging small-diameter nerves, but ongoing improvements aim to increase its usage in peripheral nerve assessments.
