An examination of the effect of moderate
exercise on diffusion indices in skeletal muscle in volunteers in order to
quantify the effect of the exercise, and define when diffusion indices returned
to baseline rest values.

participant by time. Orange points are pre-exercise (plotted from time of first
scan), blue points are post-exercise (plotted from time exercise ceased). Error
bars are one standard deviation shown in one direction only for clarity.
