Brainstem Diffusion Tensor Tractography and Clinical Applications in Pain
Frontiers in Pain Research, 2022 The brainstem is one of the most vulnerable brain structures in many neurological conditions, such as pain, sleep problems, autonomic dysfunctions, and neurodegenerative disorders.

Local and Global Fiber Tractography in Patients with Epilepsy [PDF]
American Journal of Neuroradiology, 2013 Fiber tractography is increasingly used in the preoperative evaluation of endangered fiber bundles. From a clinical point of view, an accurate and methodologically transparent procedure is desired. Our aim was to evaluate the recently described global tracking algorithm compared with other established methods, such as deterministic and probabilistic ...

Methods to Improve Fiber Reconstruction at DTI-Based Tractography in the Area of Brain Tumor: Case Illustration and Literature Review [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Neurosurgery, 2022 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 ...

In Vivo Tractography of Fetal Association Fibers
PLOS ONE, 2015 Association fibers connect different cortical areas within the same hemisphere and constitute an essential anatomical substrate for a diverse range of higher cognitive functions. So far a comprehensive description of the prenatal in vivo morphology of these functionally important pathways is lacking. In the present study, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)

Alterations in fiber pathways reveal brain tumor typology: a diffusion tractography study [PDF]
PeerJ, 2014 Conventional structural Magnetic Resonance (MR) techniques can accurately identify brain tumors but do not provide exhaustive information about the integrity of the surrounding/embedded white matter (WM).

Genetic white matter fiber tractography with global optimization [PDF]
Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 2009 Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) tractography is a novel technique that can delineate the trajectories between cortical region of the human brain non-invasively. In this paper, a novel DTI based white matter fiber tractography using genetic algorithm is presented.

Automated white matter fiber tract identification in patients with brain tumors
NeuroImage: Clinical, 2017 We propose a method for the automated identification of key white matter fiber tracts for neurosurgical planning, and we apply the method in a retrospective study of 18 consecutive neurosurgical patients with brain tumors.
