Multiple b-values improve discrimination of cortical gray matter regions using diffusion MRI: an experimental validation with a data-driven approach [PDF]
Abstract Objective To investigate whether varied or repeated b-values provide better diffusion MRI data for discriminating cortical areas with a data-driven approach. Methods Data were acquired from three volunteers at 1.5T with b-values of 800, 1400, 2000 s/mm2 along 64 ...

Diffusion‐Weighted MRI of Breast Cancer: Improved Lesion Visibility and Image Quality Using Synthetic b‐Values [PDF]
BackgroundDiffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI) is an MRI technique with the potential to serve as an unenhanced breast cancer detection tool. Synthetic b‐values produce images with high diffusion weighting to suppress residual background signal, while avoiding additional measurement times and reducing artifacts.PurposeTo compare acquired DWI images (at b =

Improved Multi B-Value Diffusion-Weighted MRI of the Body by Simultaneous Model Estimation and Image Reconstruction (SMEIR) [PDF]
Diffusion-weighted MRI images acquired with multiple b-values have the potential to improve diagnostic accuracy by increasing the conspicuity of lesions and inflammatory activity with background suppression. Unfortunately, the inherently low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of DW-MRI reduces enthusiasm for using these images for diagnostic purposes ...
