Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping of Magnetic Quadrupole Moments

Figure 7

The relationship between the quadrupole moment and fiber tract orientation in white matter. To investigate the possibility that susceptibility anisotropy and microstructure in white matter might affect the quadrupole moment, scatter plots between quadrupole moment and white matter fiber tract orientation by independent DTI measurement were generated. The quadrupole moment did not show a significant dependency on orientation.
