          The study tested the estimation accuracy of Neurite 
						orientation dispersion and density imaging (NODDI) using 
						a common 2-shell protocol with the same gradient 
						direction at each shell. The experiment used visual and 
						quantitative comparisons to demonstrate that the common 
						2-shell protocol had very similar performance as the 
						optimized NODDI protocol, but is easy to configure in a 
						commercial scanner, thus can be widely adopted in 
						clinical study.
