[Mristudio-users] Obtaining tract volume data

Hey,

I did this already. The gradient table was acquired from the header file of the mosaic. The B values were copied in there automatically. I also have placed te b values separated by a comma on the Bvalues, optional Box. I don't understand what the problem is. Thanks
Any other ideas????
Best,

salvador

hi,

for multiple b-value dataset, you can define the gradeint table as:  #: x, y, z, b-value
e.g.

0: 1, 0, 0, 600
1: 0,1,0, 600
....
32: 1,0,0, 1000
33: 0,1,0, 1000
...

regards,

hangyi

Hello Susumu,

I've been using DTIstudio for over a year... It works good. But i just started running a tensor calculation with 4 b values and 256 directions. But it is crashing in the process of the calculation. I'm not requesting any other commands, just the tensor... Do you have any idea what i could do to calculate it... Do i have to analize with less bvalues?
Thanks
salvador

Hi Melisa,

This is what we do too.

I think the number of voxels occupied by fibers and the average length
of the fibers are very different. The former has unit of mm^3 and the
latter is mm. I don't use the length of fibers for quantification.
