L. Wang, C. Arnold, Z. Zhou, L. Xiang, A. Shankaranarayanan, S. Bash, L. Tanenbaum
Subtle Medical, Menlo Park, United States
Impact: Syn-DIR provides superior lesion visibility and consistent brain structure representation. The strong agreement in quantitative lesion and regional brain volumes demonstrates its robustness for clinical and research applications.

3588. Susceptibility Source Separation for Quantification of Remyelination in Multiple Sclerosis Lesions from multi Gradient-Echo (mGRE) Data
M. Sisman, A. Wu, H. Luu, A. Dimov, H. Schwartz, K. Markowitz, I. Pliska-Bloch, P. Spincemaille, Y. Wang, S. Gauthier, T. Nguyen
Cornell University, New York, United States
Impact: Understanding about the mechanism and timing of the remyelination in multiple sclerosis (MS) is incomplete. Therefore, noninvasive quantification of myelin is fast and accurately is an important clinical need.  Susceptibility source separation from gradient-echo carries potential to satisfy this need.
