Note:—Image resolution is all squared (mm); b-values are s/mm².
PMA indicates postmenstrual age at image acquisition (weeks); TEA, term equivalent age; FS, field strength (T); TR, repetition time (ms); TE, echo time (ms); FOV, field of view (mm); Thk, section thickness (mm); No. Dir, number of diffusion encoding directions; +, used; and −, not used; Neo, neonatal; Erasmus MC-Sophia is the hospital where the authors are affiliated.
