=================================================
Between-volumes Motion Correction on DWI datasets
=================================================
During a dMRI acquisition, the subject motion inevitable. This motion implies
a misalignment between N volumes on a dMRI dataset. A common way to solve this
issue is to perform a registration on each acquired volume to a
reference b = 0 :footcite:p:`Jenkinson2001`.
This preprocessing is a highly recommended step that should be executed before
any dMRI dataset analysis.
Let's import some essential functions.
