Computing the orientational-average of diffusion-weighted MRI signals: a comparison of different techniques

Abstract Numerous applications in diffusion MRI involve computing the orientationally-averaged diffusion-weighted signal. Most approaches implicitly assume, for a given b-value, that the gradient sampling vectors are uniformly distributed on a sphere (or ‘shell’), computing the orientationally-avera...
