Figure 9. Quantitative evaluation of the fascicle characteristics along a uniform fascicle.

Figure 9

Quantitative evaluation of diffusion parameters along the horizontal synthetic tract of Fig. 8 for SNR of Inline graphicdB and Inline graphicdB and for HARDI35-MFM and CUSP35-MFM. (a) Fractional anisotropy assessment. (b) Radial diffusivity assessment. It shows the FA and the RD of two uniform fascicles to be almost uniform with CUSP35-MFM, which is clinically relevant to assess individual fascicle characteristics when studying white matter development or degeneration.
