In vivo pseudodiffusion calculations for the ROI-based and voxelwise methods in normal volunteers

Low b=(0,50) Low b=(0,10,25,50)
ROI Dp 37.0 (9.7) 85.9 (25.1) P < 0.001
CV 0.26 0.28
Voxelwise Mean Dp 25.2 (6.0) 61.3 (18.3) P < 0.001
CV 0.11 0.10
Median Dp 19.0 (6.6) 35.0 (13.3) P < 0.001
CV 0.25 0.18
% Outliers 31.3 (7.9) 10.1 (5.5) P < 0.001

The units of the b-values are s/mm2. The units of the pseudodiffusion values are μm2/ms. Each set of low b-values was in addition to b=(100,150,200,400,800) s/mm2. Standard deviations are shown in parentheses. P-values are the result of a paired two-sample t-test.

Abbreviations: Dp = pseudodiffusion, CV = coefficient of variation.
