[Abstract] Diffusion spectrum imaging (DSI) is an advanced diffusion imaging technology used to describe the fiber tracts profile of the human body. It can truly and accurately visualize intracranial intersecting and complex fiber tracts, which made up for other diffusion imaging's shortcomings. And the degree of fiber tracts damage can be estimated through the use of DSI-related parameters. The two characteristics have great advantages in describing the microstructure of the tissue. This article introduces the fundamental principle of DSI and parameters of diffusion spectrum imaging, and also reveals central nervous system anatomy details and the changes in the white matter fiber structure that cause clinical diseases accroding to DSI. It is helpful for the study of the pathophysiology of central nervous system diseases and also provides more options for diagnosis and treatment of diseases.
