Validation of DTI tractography-based measures of primary motor area connectivity in the squirrel monkey brain. [PDF]
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) tractography provides noninvasive measures of structural cortico-cortical connectivity of the brain. However, the agreement between DTI-tractography-based measures and histological 'ground truth' has not been quantified. In

Show Me the Brain!!: A modern approach to neuroanatomy education
Abstract Show Me the Brain!! (SMtB) is a digital system for interactive graphics that is designed to support instruction in neuroanatomy and neuroscience. It will soon be made open‐source and freely available. SMtB bridges medical and traditional neuroanatomy instruction with the computational systems and representational conventions common in ...

Embarrassingly Parallel Acceleration of Global Tractography via Dynamic Domain Partitioning
Global tractography estimates brain connectivity by organizing signal-generating fiber segments in an optimal configuration that best describes the measured diffusion-weighted data, promising better stability than local greedy methods with respect to ...

Clinically Feasible White Matter Fiber Tractography in Peritumoral Zones With Cerebral Vasogenic Edema. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Purpose In diffusion MRI, vasogenic edema manifests as a major fraction of isotropic water that dilutes the anisotropic intra‐axonal portion of the signal. Many tractography algorithms mistake vasogenic edema for the white matter boundary and terminate tracking to prevent producing spurious streamlines.

The Evolving Role of Clinical Anatomy: From Definition to Contribution
ABSTRACT The term “clinical anatomy” is widely used in education and research, yet its conceptual boundaries continue to be interpreted in various ways. Prior consensus‐based efforts have emphasized integration, collaboration, and clinical relevance as central features of the field and have provided an important foundation for interdisciplinary ...

Beyond crossing fibers: Bootstrap probabilistic tractography using complex subvoxel fiber geometries
Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging fiber tractography is a powerful tool for investigating human white matter connectivity in vivo. However, it is prone to false positive and false negative results, making interpretation of the tractography result ...

Artificial intelligence for adaptive neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy
Abstract Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) affects nearly one third of people with epilepsy and is associated with substantial cognitive, psychiatric, and mortality burdens. For patients who are not candidates for resection or laser interstitial thermal therapy, neuromodulation therapies such as vagus nerve stimulation, deep brain stimulation, and ...

Picture naming: Stereoelectroencephalography and connectivity insights
Abstract Objective This study investigates the neural substrates of picture naming (PN) using stereoelectroencephalographic (SEEG) stimulations and evaluates the contribution of white matter (WM) fascicles related to the basal temporal language area (BTLA) to the broader functional PN network.
