## Abstract ## Purpose: To use spinal cord diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) for investigating human cervical funiculi, acquire axial diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data with an inβplane resolution sufficient to delineate subquadrants within the spinal cord, obtain corresponding DTI metri

Diffusion in biological tissues can be measured by magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging The complex nature of anisotropic diffusion in the brain has been described by a diffusion tensor which contains information about the magnitude of diffusion in different directions. Each tensor contains a
The tensors derived from diffusion tensor imaging describe complex diffusion in tissues. However, it is difficult to compare tensors directly or to produce images that contain all of the information of the tensor. Therefore, it is convenient to produce scalar measures that extract desired aspects of
## Abstract The bootstrap technique is an extremely powerful nonparametric statistical procedure for determining the uncertainty in a given statistic. However, its use in diffusion tensor MRI tractography remains virtually unexplored. This work shows how the bootstrap can be used to assign confiden
