## Abstract Diffusion tensor MRI (DTI) using conventional single‐shot (SS) 2D diffusion‐weighted (DW)‐EPI is subject to severe susceptibility artifacts. Multishot DW imaging (DWI) techniques can reduce these distortions, but they generally suffer from artifacts caused by motion‐induced phase errors
## Abstract ## Purpose: To determine if 2D single‐shot interleaved multislice inner volume diffusion‐weighted echo planar imaging (ss‐IMIV‐DWEPI) can be used to obtain quantitative diffusion measurements that can assist in the identification of plaque components in the cervical carotid artery. ##
