29 Hypotheses about the acquistion modalities 1 The contribution of the bias will be much smaller for the Rician than for the nc-χ case. Accordingly, the bias on the estimation will be smaller in one-coil systems and in pmri when reconstructed with SENSE. 2 The error due to the variance will be reduced by increasing the number of gradients (N). However, this is not the case for the bias, which cannot be reduced from taking more gradients. The only way to do so is by increasing the SNR. This can be done by properly filtering the data or by increasing the NEX (number of repetitions in the scanner). 3 pmri reconstructed images are known to decrease the SNR according to the so-called g-factor. So, the variance and bias of the error are expected to grow in these cases when compared to the fully-sampled multiple coil case. 4 Finally, equation does not take into account one additional source of error: in subsampled pmri the missing data must be estimated, i.e. the spatial aliasing must be corrected. The error in this estimation will also propagate to the DT estimation. Laboratory of Image Processing (LPI) DWI adquisition and DTI 13 / 22

40 Conclusions The methods considered can be modeled or approximated by a nc-χ distribution (Rician being a particular case). Three variables must be taken into account: the number of coils (that mainly affects to the bias in the error), the number of gradients (that mainly affects to the variance of the estimation error) and the SNR that globally affects the estimation error. Methods using multiple coils show a greater bias. pmri: accelerate the acquisition process but worsening the SNR: greater variance and bias in DT estimation.
