Abstract：
:High resolution ex vivo diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) studies of neural tissues can improve our understanding of brain structure. In these studies we can modify the tissue relaxation properties of the fixed tissues to better suite the scanner hardware. We investigated the use of Gd-DTPA contrast agent to provide the optimum signal-to-noise (SNR) ratio in 3D DTI scans of formalin fixed nonhuman primate brains at 4.7 T. Relaxivity measurements in gray and white matter allowed us to optimize the Gd concentration for soaking the brains, resulting in a 2 fold improvement in SNR for the 3D scans. FA changed little with Gd concentrations up to 10 mM although ADC was reduced at 5 and 10 mM. Comparison of in vivo, fresh ex vivo and fixed brains showed no significant FA changes but reductions in ADC of about 50% in fresh ex vivo, and 64% and 80% in fixed gray and white matter respectively. Studies of the temperature dependence of diffusion in these tissues suggested that a 30 degrees increase in sample temperature may yield an improvement of up to 55% in SNR-efficiency for a given diffusion weighting. Our Gd soaking regimen appeared to have no detrimental effect on standard histology of the fixed brain sections. Our methods yield both high SNR and spatial resolution DTI data in fixed primate brains, allowing us to perform high resolution tractography which will facilitate the process of 'validation' of DTI fiber tracts against traditional measures of brain fiber architecture.
