A minimum, generic diffusion MRI acquisition scheme supporting the reliable application of multiple common estimation methods is investigated.
Figure 2: Example of the parametric maps obtained using the whole available dataset (REFERENCE) and the minimum acquisition scheme (MAS), and the percentage error maps (ERR [%]) for the main parameters for each model.
