Diffusion MRI is widely used for the clinical examination of a variety of diseases of the nervous system. However, clinical MRI scanners are mostly capable of magnetic field gradients in the range of 20–80 mT/m and are thus limited in the detection of small tissue structures such as determining axon diameters. The availability of high …
