Diffusion MRI and tractography in the musculoskeletal system has recently attracted more and more attention to investigate the connective tissue microstructure, local collagen fiber alignment, and the 3D collagen fiber network. Although diffusion tractography was successfully performed in some individual regions of knee, investigating the effects of the acquisition parameters for the whole joint are still lack.
