摘要：
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, obtaining first magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data of a subject, wherein the first MRI data is obtained during a first scan of a subject, wherein the first scan has a first diffusion sampling time, and wherein the first diffusion sampling time is selected in order to facilitate use of the first MRI data to determine a first Intravoxel Incoherent Motion (IVIM) effective diffusion coefficient in a Stationary Random Flow (SRF) regime； obtaining second MRI data of the subject, wherein the second MRI data is obtained during a second scan of the subject, wherein the second scan has a second diffusion sampling time, wherein the second diffusion sampling time is longer than the first diffusion sampling time, and wherein the second diffusion sampling time is selected in order to facilitate use of the second MRI data to determine a second IVIM effective diffusion coefficient in a pseudodiffusion regime； determining a blood velocity value based upon the first MRI data； and determining a segment length value based upon the second MRI data. Additional embodiments are disclosed.
