The relationships between phantom microstructure and the diffusion tensor. Increasing fractional anisotropy (a) indicates more restricted diffusion. Increasing mean diffusivity (b) indicates increased magnitude of diffusion. Increasing T2 relaxation (c) indicates increased water content. Mean ± standard deviation is shown for five phantoms with each geometry. PBS, phosphate-buffered saline; PEG, polyethylene glycol.
