Advanced diffusion MRI acquisitions, such as double diffusion encoding (DDE), have been used to provide estimates of microscopic anisotropy, and the majority of DDE studies to date have acquired data at a single b-value. This study shows in simulations and ex-vivo experiments that the D(O)DE derived microscopic anisotropy metric strongly depends on the choice of b-value and proposes a multi shell estimation scheme which provides accurate measurements.
