Choice of prior distribution and central tendency measure affects the results of Bayesian IVIM parameter estimates. This must be considered when comparing results from different studies. The best overall quality of IVIM parameter estimates was obtained using the lognormal prior. Magn Reson Med 79:1674-1683, 2018. © 2017 International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine.
