Motor Evoked Potentials Improve Targeting in Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives One of the main challenges posed by the surgical deep brain stimulation (DBS) procedure is the successful targeting of the structures of interest and avoidance of side effects, especially in asleep surgery. Here, intraoperative motor evoked potentials (MEPs) might serve as tool to identify the pyramidal tract.

Validation of in utero tractography of human fetal commissural and internal capsule fibers with histological structure tensor analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2015
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and tractography offer the unique possibility to visualize the developing white matter macroanatomy of the human fetal brain in vivo and in utero and are currently under investigation for their potential use in the ...

Modelfree global tractography

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2018
Tractography based on diffusion-weighted MRI investigates the large scale arrangement of the neurite fibers in brain white matter. It is usually assumed that the signal is a convolution of a fiber specific response function (FRF) with a fiber orientation distribution (FOD). The FOD is the focus of tractography.

Diffusion MR tractography of the heart [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2009
Histological studies have shown that the myocardium consists of an array of crossing helical fiber tracts. Changes in myocardial fiber architecture occur in ischemic heart disease and heart failure, and can be imaged non-destructively with diffusion-encoded MR.

Deep Brain Stimulation Reduces Conflict‐Related Theta and Error‐Related Negativity in Patients With Obsessive–Compulsive Disorder

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) is a psychiatric disorder with alterations of cortico‐striato‐thalamo‐cortical loops and impaired performance monitoring. Electrophysiological markers such as conflict‐related medial frontal theta (MFT) and error‐related negativity (ERN) may be altered by clinically effective deep brain ...

Diffusion tensor imaging reveals sex differences in pain sensitivity of rats

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2023
Studies on differences in brain structure and function according to sex are reported to contribute to differences in behavior and cognition. However, few studies have investigated brain structures or used tractography to investigate gender differences in

A Randomized, Sham‐Controlled Trial of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Targeting M1 and S2 in Central Poststroke Pain: A Pilot Trial

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Central poststroke pain (CPSP), a neuropathic pain condition, is difficult to treat. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) targeted to the primary motor cortex (M1) can alleviate the condition, but not all patients respond. We aimed to assess a promising alternative rTMS target, the secondary somatosensory cortex (S2),

High b-value diffusion tractography: Abnormal axonal network organization associated with medication-refractory epilepsy

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2022
Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) tractography has played a critical role in characterizing patterns of aberrant brain network reorganization among patients with epilepsy.

Validate your white matter tractography algorithms with a reappraised ISMRM 2015 Tractography Challenge scoring system

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Since 2015, research groups have sought to produce the ne plus ultra of tractography algorithms using the ISMRM 2015 Tractography Challenge as evaluation. In particular, since 2017, machine learning has made its entrance into the tractography world.

Using mesoscopic tract-tracing data to guide the estimation of fiber orientation distributions in the mouse brain from diffusion MRI

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2023
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 ...
