Fractional anisotropy comparison between the in vivo and the ex vivo scans for PND5 and PND14 rat pups.

	PND5 (in vivo)	PND5 (ex vivo)	PND14 (in vivo)	PND14 (ex vivo)
GCC	0.73 ± 0.034	0.74 ± 0.022	0.78 ± 0.053	0.80 ± 0.029
BCC	0.55 ± 0.039	0.56 ± 0.028	0.56 ± 0.086	0.58 ± 0.042
SCC	0.79 ± 0.037	0.80 ± 0.019	0.81 ± 0.045	0.81 ± 0.021

Fractional anisotropy values were not significantly different between the in vivo and ex vivo scans.
