Consensus between pipelines in structural brain networks. [PDF]
Structural brain networks may be reconstructed from diffusion MRI tractography data and have great potential to further our understanding of the topological organisation of brain structure in health and disease.

Diffusion MRI (dMRI) tractography is the only tool for non-invasive mapping of macroscopic structural connectivity over the entire brain. Although it has been successfully used to reconstruct large white matter tracts in the human and animal brains, the ...

Quantitative Analysis in Cervical Spinal Cord Injury Patients Using Diffusion Tensor Imaging and Tractography [PDF]
Objective To investigate the clinical usefulness of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and tractography in the prediction of outcomes after traumatic cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) and to assess whether the predictability is different between DTI and ...

Performance of unscented Kalman filter tractography in edema: Analysis of the two-tensor model
Diffusion MRI tractography is increasingly used in pre-operative neurosurgical planning to visualize critical fiber tracts. However, a major challenge for conventional tractography, especially in patients with brain tumors, is tracing fiber tracts that ...

Evaluation of tractogram filtering methods using human-like connectome phantoms
Tractography algorithms are prone to reconstructing spurious connections. The set of streamlines generated with tractography can be post-processed to retain the streamlines that are most biologically plausible.

Defining Meyer's loop-temporal lobe resections, visual field deficits and diffusion tensor tractography [PDF]
Anterior temporal lobe resection is often complicated by superior quadrantic visual field deficits (VFDs). In some cases this can be severe enough to prohibit driving, even if a patient is free of seizures.

Fiber tracking in q-ball fields using regularized particle trajectories [PDF]
Most of the approaches dedicated to fiber tracking from diffusion-weighted MR data rely on a tensor model. However, the tensor model can only resolve a single fiber orientation within each imaging voxel.

Methods to Improve Fiber Reconstruction at DTI-Based Tractography in the Area of Brain Tumor: Case Illustration and Literature Review [PDF]
Background and Aim: Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI)-based tractography can help us visualize the spatial relation of fiber tracts to brain lesions. Several factors may interfere with the procedure of diffusion-based tractography, especially in brain ...

A novel approach for improved tractography and quantitative analysis of probabilistic fibre tracking curves [PDF]
This paper presents a novel approach for improved diffusion tensor fibre tractography, aiming to tackle a number of the limitations of current fibre tracking algorithms, and describes a quantitative analysis tool for probabilistic tracking algorithms. We
