Schematic representation of the image volume with the coordinate axes, X (anterior-posterior), Y (left-right), Z (inferior-superior) and voxel-wise diagonal tensor with eigenvalues λ1, λ2 and λ3 and eigenvectors , , and along the image axes. Lateral cross-sections of the iso-surfaces in the X-Z plane, and 3D renderings of a representative iso-surface are shown for λ1=λ2=1 and λ3=1,5,50 (left to right).
