Recent developments in the field have introduced new ways to measure the diffusion process in clinically feasible settings. These new measurements, performed by employing generalised magnetic field gradient waveforms, grant access to specific features of the cellular composition and structural organisation of the tissue. Methods based on them have already proven beneficial for the assessment of different brain diseases, sparking interest in translating such techniques into clinical practice. This thesis focuses on improving the methods currently employed for the analysis of such diffusion MRI data, with the aim of facilitating their clinical adoption.
