          MR images are typically distorted with spurious signal 
						that appear near sharp edges in the images. This Gibbs 
						artifact results from the truncation of the k-space. 
						Although the artifacts has a significant impact on the 
						quantification of diffusion MR indices, it is often 
						ignored or only reduced by smoothing the data at the 
						expense of image blurring. The present work demonstrates 
						that extrapolating the data in k-space beyond the 
						measured part by means of second order total 
						generalization variation minimization allows for a 
						suppression of truncation artifacts without compromising 
						resolution or modeling the image as a piecewise constant 
						function.
