We describe the construction of an anatomical template of 3D probability distributions water molecule displacements in tissues (i.e., diffusion propagators) measured with MAP MRI in a population of healthy volunteers. From the template of 3D diffusion propagators, we compute normative values of MAP MRI microstructural parameters and visualize the orientational characteristics of water net displacement profiles using orientation distribution functions (ODFs). This atlas could provide a reference for protocol development in longitudinal and multi-center studies, and for clinical studies seeking to detect and characterize subtle microstructural changes, such as those occurring in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), or metastatic cancer.
