Abstract in brief

  • The paper introduces a new way to identify the geometry of neuronal fiber tracts in a single voxel using diffusion weighted MRI data, focusing on situations with single or multiple fibers.
  • It leverages discrete diffusion basis functions to recover detailed intravoxel information, particularly in areas where fibers cross or split, resulting in a representation of fiber geometry as a mixture of Gaussians.
  • The technique is efficient, requiring fewer diffusion images and less acquisition time, and it shows robustness even when dealing with more than two fibers, while two algorithmic solutions are proposed for implementation.
