Mean apparent propagtor MRI (MAP-MRI) is a method of
using diffusion MRI to map tissue microstructure. To
evaluate the accuracy and precision of MAP-MRI we use a
test system consisting of an array of microscopic
cylinders. We use both simulated data, computed using
the multiple correlation function (mcf) method, and real
diffusion imaging data of a special phantom. We report
the accuracy and precision of several MAP parameters as
a function of the signal-to-noise ratio of the
non-diffusion weighted images.
