Table 2. Mean (±standard deviation) of DTI-derived parameters over all participants for both scans at the 9-minute breakdown for white matter (WM) and gray matter (GM).

Results from Bland Altman are also listed, including the mean difference (± standard deviation), 95% confidence interval for the difference, the Bland Altman limit of agreement statistic, the normalized difference, and the Wilcoxon signed rank (WSR) p-value between the two scans.
