Manufacturers: General Electric Healthcare (GEHC), Siemens Medical (SM), Philips Medical (PM).

b

Output parameters: ADCn: monoexponential ADC using all n b-values; ADChi-low: monoexponential ADC using only highest and lowest b-values; ADCslow: monoexponential ADC using three highest b-values; and PerfFrac: fraction of b=0 signal attributed to fast-decaying perfusion component.

c

An additional GEHC study with all directional DWI images but no trace images was included in Br4b.
