Abstract
No study has yet combined Diffusion Tensor Imaging and Diffusion Kurtosis Imaging to compare brain tissue microstructural differences between individuals with ME/CFS and long COVID.
- Both ME/CFS and long COVID share symptoms such as profound fatigue and cognitive impairment.
- Magnetic Resonance Imaging techniques have been used to investigate brain tissue microstructure in these conditions.
- Diffusion Tensor Imaging and Diffusion Kurtosis Imaging are effective methods for examining brain tissue.
- Understanding microstructural differences may help clarify the relationship between ME/CFS and long COVID.
