FIGURE 5:

At all three levels of diffusion-weighting (a, b, c) artifact-to-noise ratio (A/N) is significantly lower with DW-DESS-Cones (blue markers) than with DW-DESS-Cartesian (gray markers). For all diffusion gradient amplitudes with DW-DESS-Cones, A/N is close to 1.0 indicating minimal additional motion artifact above background noise. The smaller difference in A/N between the two techniques at beqbr 800 may be due to the lower signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at this level of diffusion-weighting
