The shape of bi-exponential fitting errors in the parameter space was calculated and visualized. From these plots, it is suggested that parameter estimation with bi-exponential curve fitting is not reliable, even thtough the fitting itself is good, especially for small range of b-value. Using a new set of parameters, D and d, it is possible to estimate the parameters more reliably, and the parameter interpretation becomes more straightforward.
