Diffusion encoding gradients are known to yield vibrations of the typical clinical MR scanner hardware with a frequency of 20 to 30 Hz, which may lead to signal loss in diffusion‐weighted MR measurements. This work proposes to mitigate vibration‐induced signal loss by introducing a vibration‐matching gradient (VMG) to match vibrational states during the 2 diffusion gradient pulses.
