<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Dear MRtrix users,<br><br></div>As I'm new user of MRtrix software. I am processing the neonatal DTI data which was acquired with 30 gradient directions and b value of 0 mm/s.<br><br></div>I've used the lmax = 6 for the response function coefficient (since we have 30 gradient directions). <br>
<br>For the CSD computation, I've used the lmax of 8 (as its recommended for most DWI datasets as per the instructions on the webpage:<br clear="all"><div><div><div><a href="http://www.brain.org.au/software/mrtrix/tractography/preprocess.html">http://www.brain.org.au/software/mrtrix/tractography/preprocess.html</a><br>
<br></div><div>So I was wondering what would be the optimal lmax value for the CSD for our neonatal dataset? As our dataset is a 30 gradient DTI not <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">HARDI
