Multicomponent driven equilibrium steady-state observation of T<sub>1</sub> and T<sub>2</sub> (mcDESPOT) aims to quantify the Myelin Water Fraction (MWF) using a two-pool microstructural model. The MWF has been used to track neurodevelopment and neurodegeneration and has been histologically correlated to myelin content. mcDESPOT has a clinically feasible acquisition time and high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) relative to other MWF techniques. However, disagreement exists in the literature between ...[more]
