White matter mean diffusivity correlates with myelination in tuberous sclerosis complex

Abstract

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) of the white matter is a biomarker for neurological disease burden in tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). To clarify the basis of abnormal diffusion in TSC, we correlated ex vivo high‐resolution diffusion imaging with histopathology in four tissue types: cortex, tuber, perituber, and white matter.
