Hi,
I have been trying to mathematically derive the formula to find FRACTIONAL ANISOTROPYrn(Fractional anisotropy is a method that is used to emphasize and evaluate white matter fiber tracts)
The formula that is given in many textbooks and published paper
FA= Squareroot(3/2) * (Sqaureroot[ (lambda1-lambda)^2 + (lambda2-lambda)^2 + (lambda3-lambda)^2]/ Sqaureroot( Lambda1^2+Lambda2^2+Lambda3^2))
I understand the purpose of Lambda but unable to understand the need for SQUAREROOT (3/2)rnrnPlease do kindly explain the reason behind having SQUAREROOT(3/2) for the Fractional Anisotropy formula
