Assessing diffusion kurtosis tensor estimation methods using a digital brain phantom derived from human connectome project data

Diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) has gained popularity in recent years as an advanced diffusion-weighted MRI technique. This work aims to quantitatively compare the performance and accuracy of four DKI processing algorithms. For this purpose, a digital DKI brain phantom is developed.
