In Vivo Examination Of Gray Matter Microstructure Integrity In Autism Spectrum Disorder

Prior histological post-mortem studies have shown gray matter (GM) microstructural abnormalities in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) but in-vivo evaluation of GM microstructure in ASD remains limited. In this study we employ diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) to non-invasively study GM microstructure in-vivo in ASD compared to typically developing participants (TD).
