Dear FSL team,
I have three general DTI questions:
1) I am going through some clinical scans and see the radiologists only have DWI sequences taken during the scan but nothing labelled "DTI". Can I convert these DWI somehow to DTI-usable images? OR since DTI sequence was not officially part of the scanning protocol, there is no way for me to get a DTI image? I saw the Internet might offer some converters from DWI to DTI, but they look suspicious.
What is your opinion?
To me, it is more like a "NO", as if the transition from DWI to DTI was so easy, no one would bother having 10+min DTI sequences in their protocols and bother critically ill patients.
2) when there is a clear DTI sequence taken, there are also these "adc", "tracew" images. Do I actually need them for anything as I usually get all the tensor data/info from the DTI images themselves?
3) sometimes radiologists are labeling my DTI images like "ep2d diff MDDW_DTI". Is that ok (the problem is that I can neither download these images myself to check straight ahead nor to ask anyone as I have no access to these radiologists). Should this label of the ep2d multi-directional diffusion weighting bother me? I don't understand it.
Thank you in advance for your help! I would highly appreciate it!
Elisabeth
