The study developed a methodology to improve the quality of the multi-b DWIs using the intrinsic multi-exponential pattern. It was evaluated on a healthy brain and compared with the mono-exponential model. In addition, its potential value of improving the robustness of IVIM was also evaluated. According to the results, the multi-exponential method can improve the image quality of the multi-b DWIs and may become an effective preprocessing way for the non-monoexponential models.
