## Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of longitudinal drift in scanner hardware, inter‐scanner variability (bias), and scanner upgrade on longitudinal changes in global and regional diffusion properties using longitudinal data obtained on two scanners of the exact same m

The effect of susceptibility differences between fluid and fibers on the properties of DTI fiber phantoms was investigated. Thereto, machine-made, easily producible and inexpensive DTI fiber phantoms were constructed by winding polyamide fibers of 15 microm diameter around a circular acrylic glass s
Tractography algorithms for diffusion tensor (DT) images consecutively connect directions of maximal diffusion across neighboring DTs in order to reconstruct the 3-dimensional trajectories of white matter tracts in vivo in the human brain. The performance of these algorithms, however, is strongly in
## Purpose: To compare isotropic (combined diffusion-weighted image [cmb], apparent diffusion coefficient [adc], trace, exponential adc [eadc], and isotropically-weighted diffusion image [isodwi]) and anisotropic (relative anisotropy [ra], fractional anisotropy [fa], and volume ratio [vr]) diffusio
