Modelling multiple flip angle diffusion weighted SSFP data

Diffusion imaging with SSFP offers great temporal CNR, and is particularly suited for post-mortem whole brain imaging. We have previously shown that using multiple flip angles helps improve CNR homogeneity across the brain. Here, we use a combination of analytic and Monte Carlo simulations, coupled with real post-mortem human brain data, to demonstrate how we can model multiple flip angle DW-SSFP with a simple Gamma distribution of ADCs.
