MD (Mean diffusivity) can be obtained by Trace/3.
Or, you can average three eigenvalues (eigenvalue0+eigenvalue1+eigenvalue2)/3.
Obviously, Trace is the sum of these three eigenvalues.

In early days of diffusion-weighted imaging, there were confusions
about apparent diffusion constant, average diffusion constant, and
mean diffusivity. Trace is a technical term that can't be confused.
So, back then, Trace was used often.
