| 45 | +*In vivo* data description |
| 46 | +----------------- |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +Two diffusion weighted scans and a T1 weighted scan of a healthy volunteer were acquired on a 3T Philips scanner. |
| 49 | +A SENSE acceleration factor R = 2 (producing spatially varying Rician noise) |
| 50 | +was used with a gradient strength of 45 mT/m and a 32 channels head coil. The following acquisition parameters were used : |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +For the high resolution dataset : |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +- 40 gradient directions at b = 1000 s/mm² + 1 b0 image at 1.2 mm voxel size |
| 55 | +- TR/TE = 18.9 s / 104 ms |
| 56 | +- Total acquisition time : 13 mins |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +For the standard resolution dataset : |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +- 64 gradient directions at b = 1000 s/mm² + 1 b0 image at 1.8 mm voxel size |
| 61 | +- TR/TE = 11.1 s / 63 ms |
| 62 | +- Total acquisition time : 12 mins |
