Can the low and high b-value distribution influence the pseudodiffusion parameter derived from IVIM DWI in normal brain?

Can the low and high b-value distribution influence the pseudodiffusion parameter derived from IVIM DWI in normal brain?

Abstract Background Our study aims to reveal whether the low b-values distribution, high b-values upper limit, and the number of excitation (NEX) influence the accuracy of the intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) parameter derived from multi-b-value diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in the brain.
