Accurate Anisotropic Fast Marching for Diffusion-Based Geodesic Tractography [PDF]
Using geodesics for inferring white matter fibre tracts from diffusion-weighted MR data is an attractive method for at least two reasons: (i) the method optimises a global criterion, and hence is less sensitive to local perturbations such as noise or ...
