This study develops a diffusion MRI protocol to simultaneously characterize brain and spinal cord microstructure using DTI, SMI, and SANDI, showing high image quality and reproducibility with some challenges in the spinal cord.

This study shows body size parameters significantly correlate with brain and spinal cord MRI metrics and should be included in neuroimaging studies.

This study evaluates the impact of distortion correction and cardiac triggering on spinal cord diffusion MRI quality, finding that distortion correction has limited effectiveness and cardiac triggering can be omitted without significant quality loss.
