Standard MRI scans have so far been unable to produce satisfactory images of nerve bundles. However, this is now possible by an MRI technique called Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI). Matthan Caan succeeded in improving the DTI method during his PhD research at TU Delft, enabling him to produce more accurate images of the damage that radiotherapy and chemotherapy cause in young leukaemia patients. Alzheimer's disease With MRI, images can be obtained of various parts of the body. Unfortunately, these scans are not sufficiently refined for the imaging of nerve bundles...
