Abstract
The geometric average of two spin‐echo images obtained with opposite polarity diffusion gradients yields cross‐term‐free images that can be directly compared for diffusion anisotropy. This approach is demonstrated here for free water isotropic diffusion and anisotropic diffusion of water in the phloem system of celery (Apium graveolens). © 1991 Academic Press, Inc.Keywords
