Abstract

In contrast to commonly used approaches to improve data quality in diffusion weighted imaging, position-orientation adaptive smoothing (POAS) provides an edge-preserving post-processing approach. This study aims to investigate its potential and effects on image quality, diffusion metrics, and fiber tractography of the corticospinal tract in relation to non-post-processed and averaged data. 22 healthy volunteers were included in this study. For each volunteer five clinically applicable diffusion weighted imaging data sets were acquired and post-processed by standard averaging and POAS. POAS post-processing led to significantly higher signal-to-noise-ratios (p
