Improved Sensitivity to Cerebral White Matter Abnormalities in Alzheimer’s Disease with Spherical Deconvolution Based Tractography
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) based fiber tractography (FT) is the most popular approach for investigating white matter tracts in vivo, despite its inability to reconstruct fiber pathways in regions with "crossing fibers." Recently, constrained spherical deconvolution (CSD) has been developed to mitigate the adverse effects of "crossing fibers" on DTI based FT. Notwithstanding the methodologic...
متن کاملAltered hemispheric lateralization of white matter pathways in developmental dyslexia: Evidence from spherical deconvolution tractography.
This study examines the structural integrity and the hemispheric lateralization patterns of four major association fiber pathways in a group of French dyslexic children and age-matched controls (from 9 to 14 years), using high angular diffusion imaging combined with spherical deconvolution tractography. Compared with age-matched controls, dyslexic children show increased hindrance-modulated ori...
متن کاملWhite matter and visuospatial processing in autism: a constrained spherical deconvolution tractography study.
Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are associated with a marked disturbance of neural functional connectivity, which may arise from disrupted organization of white matter. The aim of this study was to use constrained spherical deconvolution (CSD)-based tractography to isolate and characterize major intrahemispheric white matter tracts that are important in visuospatial processing. CSD-based tract...

متن کاملImproved Reference Tracts for Unsupervised Brain White Matter Tractography
Neighbourhood tractography aims to automatically segment equivalent brain white matter tracts from diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) data in different subjects by using a “reference tract” as a prior for the shape and length of each tract of interest. In the current work we present a means of improving the technique by using references tracts derived from dMRI data acquired from 80 he...
