The fractional anisotropy （FA） derived from sequence C （b=1000s/mm^2, spatial resolution=0.55 mm×0.55 mm×2.5 mm, direction number=33, NSA=3） was too fuzzy to be used in tracking white matter fibers. By comparison, the high resolution and the FA with high contrast of gray matter and white matter derived from sequence D （b=800 s/mm^2, spatial resolution=1.0 mm×1.0 mm ×1.0 mm, numbers of direction=33, NSA=3） qualified in its application in tracking both thick and thin fibers, making it an optimal DTI setting for rhesus macaques.展开更多
