Warning

Numerous sequences and parameters exist for diffusion MRI (dMRI) data. As a result, people often end up using different software and everyone has different preprocessing pipelines. The processing steps also vary depending on how your data were acquired.

Note

Under construction

This instruction focuses on the preprocessing and anlysis of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) processing using FSL libraries.

Here are some free educational materials that can help understand DTI:
