abstract = {Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) detects white matter damage
in neuro-psychiatric disorders, but data on reliability of
DTI measures across more than two scanners are still
missing. In this study we assessed multicenter
reproducibility of DTI acquisitions based on a physical
phantom as well as brain scans across 16 scanners. In
addition, we performed DTI scans in a group of 26 patients
with clinically probable Alzheimer's disease (AD) and 12
healthy elderly controls at one single center. We determined
the variability of fractional anisotropy (FA) measures using
manually placed regions of interest as well as automated
tract based spatial statistics and deformation based
analysis. The coefficient of variation (CV) of FA was
$6.9\%$ for the physical phantom data. The mean CV across
the multicenter brain scans was $14\%$ for tract based
statistics, and $29\%$ for deformation based analysis. The
degree of variation was higher in less organized fiber
tracts. Our findings suggest that a clinical and physical
phantom study involving more than two scanners is
indispensable to detect potential sources of bias and to
reliably estimate effect size in multicenter diagnostic
trials using DTI.},
