Human brain white matter exhibits an uncommonly strong dispersion of 1/ T 1 at high fields. An additional relaxation pathway via the myelin lipids, which are not directly visible to medical NMR due to their fast T 2 decay, is proposed. Relaxation dispersion data are successfully analyzed on the basis of this model. © 1989 Academic Press, Inc.
