From ADC/FA back to DWI

Hi,

I received some FA and ADC images in DICOM to evaluate, but I needed the original DWI images to workup, according to your DWI tutorials. Since they were lost by the original owner, and I don´t have anymore samples to redo the Experiment, would there be an way to generate back the original DWI Images based on the FA and/or ADC DICOM?
Thanks for your help.

What you ask for is not possible.

It’s like asking for generating the original data values when only the mean and standard deviation of a numerical data set was shared with you.

FA and ADC are rotationally invariant scalers that are summary scores (statistics) of the much larger original data.
