I will be giving a brief demonstration of the MRtrix package, comparing it to traditional diffusion tensor model packages. I recommend that the attendees read this introductory paper about the toolbox to get acquainted with MRtrix's terminology: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ima.22005

As further background here is a link to the August DTI workshop, which focused more on diffusion tensor fitting. However, it does give a relevant background on how diffusion weighted images are acquired. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvBUzR5bKCs
