Philips MR Systems Export Incorrect Diffusion Directions in Enhanced DICOM DTI Scans

By the PharmaCountry team

Exported diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) scans from Philips MR systems using the Enhanced MR DICOM format contain incorrect diffusion direction data, preventing proper tractography processing.

When exporting diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) scans from a Philips MR system using the Enhanced MR DICOM format, the exported files contain incorrect diffusion direction data. If these files are used with third‑party tractography software, the software cannot correctly process the DTI data for nerve fiber pathway reconstruction.
