SUMMARY Diffusion spectrum imaging ( DSI) , a newly developed MRI technique, affords the capacity to map complex fiber architectures in tissues with sufficient angular resolution by imaging the spectra of tissue water diffusion. By contrast, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) , the currently widely used technique based on the 2nd order tensor model, obtains an approximation of the complex diffusion, and provides only one global maximal direction corresponding to the primary eigenvector for each voxel. As a generalized model-free diffusion imaging technique, firstly, DSI employs the probability density function to describe the diffusion process in each voxel; secondly, a sufficient dense signal sample derived from repeated applications of diffusion-weighed gradients ensures its capability to resolve the diffusion probability density function; thirdly, specific computer visualization techniques are used to extract the diffusion information and reconstruct the geometrical properties of tissue microstructure. The capacity to unravel complex tissue architecture, recent improvements in hardware and ongoing optimization of sequence design and algorithm enable a rapid growth of DSI for research use and future incorporation into clinical protocols. This paper introduces the basic principles of DSI and then compares the characteristics of DSI and DTI schemes. Finally, the typical applications of DSI to date are reviewed.

Electrospray ionization (ESI) and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) techniques for liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) determination of levonorgestrel were evaluated. In consideration of difference in ionization mechanism, the two ionization sources were compared in terms of LC conditions, MS parameters and performance of method. The sensitivity for detection of levonorgestrel with ESI was 0.25 ng/mL which was lower than 1 ng/mL with APCI. Matrix effects were evaluated for levonorgestrel and canrenone (internal standard, IS) in human plasma, and the results showed that APCI source appeared to be slightly less liable to matrix effect than ESI source. With an overall consideration, ESI was chosen as a better ionization technique for rapid and sensitive quantification of levonorgestrel. The optimized LC–ESI–MS/MS method was validated for a linear range of 0.25–50 ng/mL with a correlation coefficient≥0.99. The intra-and inter-batch precision and accuracy were within 11.72%and 6.58%, respectively. The application of this method was demonstrated by a bioequivalence study following a single oral administration of 1.5 mg levonorgestrel tablets in 21 Chinese healthy female volunteers.

A sensitive and selective method using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with elec-trospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC–ESI–MS) to determine the concentration of tor-asemide in human plasma samples was developed and validated. Tolbutamide was chosen as the internal standard (IS). The chromatography was performed on a Gl Sciences Inertsil ODS-3 column (100 mm ? 2.1 mm i.d., 5.0 mm) within 5 min, using methanol with 10 mM ammonium formate (60:40, v/v) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min. The targeted compound was detected in negative io-nization at m/z 347.00 for torasemide and 269.00 for IS. The linearity range of this method was found to be within the concentration range of 1–2500 ng/mL (r?0.9984) for torasemide in human plasma. The accuracy of this measurement was between 94.05%and 103.86%. The extracted recovery efficiency was from 84.20% to 86.47% at three concentration levels. This method was also successfully applied in pharmacokinetics and bioequivalence studies in Chinese volunteers.

Objective To establish a rapid, sensitive and selective liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for the determination of acyclovir (the metabolite of valacyclovir hydrochloride) in human plasma. Methods After addition of ganciclovir as internal standard (IS), plasma samples were prepared by one-step protein precipitation using acetonitrile as precipitant, followed by an isocratic elution with 0.1% formic acid 3.5μm) column. Detection was performed on a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer utilizing electrospray ionization (ESI) interface operating in positive ion and selected reaction monitoring (SRM) mode with the precursor to product ion transitions m/z 226.2→152.1 for acyclovir and m/z 256.2→152.1 for the IS. Results The analytical results demonstrated a good linearity over the ranges from 0.005 to 4μg/mL (r=0.9999) for valacyclovir hydrochloride. The relative standard deviations (RSD) of intra-batch and inter-batch were less than 4.06% and 9.23%, respectively. The limit of detection and lower limit of quantification in human plasma were 2ng/mL and 5ng/mL, respectively. Conclusion The method was simple, sensitive, accurate and reproducible and has been successfully applied to a bioequivalence study of valacyclovir hydrochloride capsules in Chinese healthy male volunteers.
