HUMAN PHENOTYPE - ANNOTATIONS

The Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) is downloaded weekly from http://compbio.charite.de/hudson/job/hpo/lastStableBuild/artifact/ontology/release/hp.obo. The file downloaded is considered the "last stable build" available for the ontology. For more about the HPO, view their website at http://www.human-phenotype-ontology.org/.

Definition:A diffusion abnormality observed in diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain. Molecular diffusion refers to the notion that any type of molecule in a fluid (eg, water) is randomly displaced as the molecule is agitated by thermal energy. Restricted diffusion of water appears bright on diffusion-weighted images.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) abnormality;   Diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) abnormality;   MRI diffusion abnormality of the cerebrum
