“…The PD model addresses a limitation of the standard DTI‐FA model, which assumes a single pool of anisotropically diffusing water. However, diffusion signal behaves as a biexponential function of b ‐values, representing two, unrestricted and restricted, “pools” of water ( M
u and M
r , respectively) (Assaf et al., 2002, 2005; Clark et al., 2002; Wu et al., 2011a,b). Parameters derived from the biexponential modeling, such as perfusion‐diffusivity index (PDI), are therefore sensitive to membrane permeability (Kochunov et al., 2013, 2014; Sukstanskii, Ackerman, & Yablonskiy, 2003; Sukstanskii, Yablonskiy, & Ackerman, 2004).…”
