We are sharing MATLAB code for model-based diffusion tensor imaging (TDI) reconstruction with variational constraints on the tensor elements.
The method uses redundancies present in diffusion-weighted image data to reduce the number of unknowns in the optimization problem. A total-variation constrain imposed on the elements of the diffusion tensor enables compressed sensing to be performed directly in the target quantitative domain.
For more information, see the related publication.
