Dynamics

D

no diffusion changes of 1H nuclei in water molecules

faster diffusing 1H nuclei in water molecules

slower diffusing 1H nuclei in water molecules

A

same degree of diffusion anisotropy

increased degree of diffusion anisotropy

decreased degree of diffusion anisotropy

V

no volume changes of the diffusing component

increased volume of the diffusing component

decreased volume of the diffusing component

V, f

no flow (volume, rate) changes of 1H nuclei in water molecules

increased flow (volume, rate) of 1H nuclei in water molecules

decreased flow (volume, rate) of 1H nuclei in water molecules

Elastography

T, A, V

no inflammation

inflammation

constriction

S

same stiffness

increased stiffness
