The Benefits and implementations of Diffusion tensor imaging and Neural Fiber Tractography in Brain Surgery
Background and Aim: The methods for detecting brain activation with fMRI, MRI provides a way to measure the anatomical connections which enable lightning-fast communication among neurons that specialize in different kinds of brain functions. Diffusion tensor imaging is able to measure the direction of bundles of the axonal fibers which are all aligned. Besides mapping white matter fiber tracts,...
متن کاملAnalyzing the contribution of cardiac pulsation to the variability of quantities derived from the diffusion tensor
C. Pierpaoli1, S. Marenco1, G. Rohde1, D. K. Jones1, A. S. Barnett1 National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland, United States Synopsis: We analyze the contributions of cardiac-pulsation to the variability in estimates of diffusion tensor quantities in the human brain. We identify two contributions to variability arising from cardiac pulsation, namely (i) mis-registration of different str...
متن کاملEffects of Turboprop diffusion tensor imaging acquisition parameters on the noise of fractional anisotropy
Introduction: Traditionally, DTI data is acquired with EPI because of its short imaging time. However, EPI-based DTI suffers from eddy-current and magnetic field inhomogeneity-related artifacts. Turboprop is characterized by low sensitivity to eddy-current and B0 effects, and is gaining popularity in DTI studies of the brain. In EPI-based DTI, it has been shown that, measuring diffusion weighte...

متن کاملEvaluation of White Matter Tracts in Autistic Individuals: A Review of Diffusion Tensor Imaging Studies
Introduction: Many cognitive and social deficits in autism are caused by abnormal functional connections between brain networks, which are manifested by impaired integrity of white matter tracts. White matter tracts are like the "highways" of the brain, which allow fast and efficient communication in different areas of the brain. The purpose of this article is to review the results of autism st...
