Hi, Stam and Matt
Thank you very much for the information. I have two related questions and would appreciate your information. Does the model assume the two crossing fibers have the same diffusivity? If I want to simulate two crossing fibers, am I right to simulate diffusion data for two fibers independently and then combine the diffusion-weighted MRI data together based on their f values?

Thanks again.

Leon

Hi Leon

In the latest FSL versions, the mean values of the diffusivity posterior distribution are saved in the output folder. There should be a mean_dsamples file. If you cannot find it, please update to the latest FSL version.

Cheers
Stam

They are in the bedpostx slice folders, but are not merged in the final output, and are deleted when the slice folders are deleted.

Hi, FSL experts
I want to simulate diffusion MRI signals based on the estimated parameters for the ball-and-stick model in the bedpostX folder. But I cannot find the diffusivity values as mentioned in the paper. Could someone tell where I can find this value? 
 
Thanks in advance!
