To perform motion correction, DW images of the brain were acquired during gross head motion using a first order motion-compensated diffusion gradient scheme and compared to a traditional DW-EPI sequence. Of the images acquired with the motion-compensated sequence, only 1.5% contained significant signal dropout compared to 36% of the images acquired with the traditional sequence. Overall, the motion-compensated sequence reduced signal dropout by 96% compared to the traditional sequence without increasing scan time or introducing new post-processing protocols.
