Double-wave-vector
diffusion-weighted imaging is able to detect microscopic diffusion anisotropy
in macroscopically isotropic samples. So far, corresponding experiments were
performed on NMR systems with high performance gradient coils (>=300mT/m).
Here, experiments are presented that provide evidence for the observation of
the anisotropy effect on a standard whole-body MR system.
