An examination of the effect of moderate exercise on diffusion indices in skeletal muscle in volunteers in order to quantify the effect of the exercise, and define when diffusion indices returned to baseline rest values. We found that there was no significant difference between pre- and post-exercise MD or FA. We believe that moderate exercise will have no evident effect on diffusion indices, and no period of rest pre-scan is required.
