We present a novel correction method for partial volume effects on the estimation of average parameters derived from diffusion tensor imaging in the cervical spinal cord. We demonstrate improved accuracy of our approach in healthy volunteers and demonstrate that our method significantly reduces bias from partial volume effects.
