The method of IVIM imaging uses a biexponential model to extract the perfusion-related information from a diffusion sequence. The low b-values distribution and number of excitation (NEX) might influence the accuracy of pseudodiffusion parameter derived from IVIM in brain.The study has suggested that the low b-value distribution affected the f value derived from IVIM sequence.
