The validation of advanced diffusion MRI methods requires acquisition at high-resolution and high SNR, which is difficult to obtain in humans. The use of anesthetized Non-Human Primates (NHPs) is key to unlocking valid microstructural maps. However, data acquisition and analysis tools must be adapted and configured for successful application to NHPs imaging. Here we propose a processing pipeline allowing for the analysis of diffusion data using DTI, CSD, and DIAMOND reconstruction, tailored for the analysis of data from the macaque brain. We present results obtained by applying the pipeline to a dataset acquired with a minimal CUSP 90 directions scheme.
