PRELIMINARY REPORT In Vivo Visualization of White Matter Fiber Tracts of Preterm- and Term-Infant Brains With Diffusion Tensor Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Objective: The goal of this study was to test the feasibility of visualizing a 3-dimensional structure of cerebral white matter fiber tracts in preterm infants, postconceptional age (PCA) 28 weeks to term, by using volumetric diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging (DTI) data. Materials and Method: We combined tractography algorithms and visualization methods, currently available for adult ...

A Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman Approach to High Angular Resolution Diffusion Tractography

This paper describes a new framework for white matter tractography in high angular resolution diffusion data. A direction-dependent local cost is defined based on the diffusion data for every direction on the unit sphere. Minimum cost curves are determined by solving the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman using an efficient algorithm. Classical costs based on the diffusion tensor field can be seen as a sp...

DT-MRI Tractography and its Application in Cognitive Neuroscience

Recent advancement of MRI techniques and development of new methods of image analysis have allowed us to study large neural tracts within the human brain. This is based on the principle of diffusion tensor MRI that is similar to that of diffusion-weighted imaging but takes magnitude and direction of the diffusion of water into account. Using this technique we have been able to define large neur...

MicrostructuralWhiteMatter AbnormalitiesandCognitiveFunctioning in Type 2 Diabetes A diffusion tensor imaging study

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODSdThirty-five nondemented older individuals with type 2 diabetes (mean age 716 5 years) and 35 age-, sex-, and education-matched control subjects underwent a 3 Tesla diffusion-weighted MRI scan and a detailed cognitive assessment. Tractography was performed to reconstruct several white matter tracts. Diffusion tensor imaging measures, including fractional anisotropy (F...
