From: Liver diffusion-weighted MR imaging with L1-regularized iterative sensitivity encoding reconstruction based on single-shot echo-planar imaging: initial clinical experience

Figure 2

Comparison between liver conv-DWI (left) and L1-DWI (right) in healthy volunteers. conv-DWI = single-shot EPI-based DWI with parallel imaging reconstruction. L1-DWI = single-shot EPI-based DWI with L1-regularized iterative reconstruction. SD = standard deviation. (A) Images of a 35-year old volunteer of DWI at b = 800 s/mm2, and the resulting ADC image. (B) Higher SNR in DWI for both b = 0 and 800 s/mm2, as well as less variable ADC values were observed in L1-DWI in comparison to conv-DWI in 12 volunteers.
