Andreas is right.
So called ADC (average diffusion constant, apparent diffusion constant) and
MD (mean diffusivity) are obtained by trace/3 (trace divided by 3), while
the trace is (eigenvalue0+eigenvalue1+eigenvalue2).

also, axial diffusivity is same as eigenvalue0 and radial diffusivity is the
average of eigenvalue1 and 2 [ (eigenvalue1+eigenvalue2)/2].
