From: Diffusion tensor-based fiber tracking of the male urethral sphincter complex in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy: a feasibility study

Fig. 3

On the left, three patients with diffusion-weighted images at the level of the prostate with its contour manually traced on the baseline b = 0 s/mm2 image (left column), overlaid on the b = 600 s/mm2 at the corresponding location (right column), to verify that eddy currents did not significantly caused distortions on the prostate. On the right, comparison of fiber tracking results for the sphincters and membranous urethra using two different combinations of acquisition parameters: (1) b value of 600, 15 directions, 40 acquired slices (D1 and D2, from two different views); (2) b value of 800, 32 directions, 25 acquired slices (E1 and E2)
