Fractional anisotropy (FA) may depend not only on the fiber orientation but also on the axonal density. In the case of a white matter disease, a change in either fiber orientation or axonal density will result a change in FA value. The orientation dispersion index and intra-cellular volume fraction, two tissue specific measures from NODDI model, can be used to study changes in fiber orientation and axonal density. In this study, aging data collected using a multiple shell acquisition scheme (HYDI) was analyzed using FA, odi and icvf to see how age and gender affect in these measures.
