Abstract:
Abstract BACKGROUND The cingulum bundle (CB) has long been a target for psychiatric neurosurgical procedures, but with limited understanding of the brain networks being impacted. Recent advances in human tractography could provide a foundation to better understand the effects of neurosurgical interventions on the CB; however, the reliability of tractography remains in question. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the ability of different tractography techniques, derived from typical, human diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) data, to characterize CB connectivity described in animal models.

Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) image registration is an essential step for diffusion tensor image analysis.

Abstract:
Modern tractography algorithms such as anatomically-constrained tractography (ACT) are based on segmentation maps of white matter (WM), gray matter (GM), and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). These maps are generally estimated from a T1-weighted (T1w) image and then registered in diffusion weighted images (DWI) space. Registration of T1w to diffusion space and partial volume estimation are challenging and rarely voxel-perfect. Diffusion-based segmentation would, thus, potentially allow not to have higher quality anatomical priors injected in the tractography process. On the other hand, even if FA-bas

IntroductionThis study explores the feasibility of implementing a tractography-based navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) language mapping protocol targeting cortical terminations of the arcuate fasciculus (AF). We compared the results and distribution of errors from the new protocol to an established perisylvian nTMS protocol that stimulated without any specific targeting over the entire perisylvian cortex.MethodsSixty right-handed patients with language-eloquent brain tumors were examined in this study with one half of the cohort receiving the tractographybased protocol and the

Abstract:
Resolving trajectories of axonal pathways in the primate prefrontal cortex remains crucial to gain insights into higher-order processes of cognition and emotion, which requires a comprehensive map of axonal projections linking demarcated subdivisions of prefrontal cortex and the rest of brain. Here, we report a mesoscale excitatory projectome issued from the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (vlPFC) to the entire macaque brain by using viral-based genetic axonal tracing in tandem with high-throughput serial two-photon tomography, which demonstrated prominent monosynaptic projections to other pre

Plasticity is often implicated as a reparative mechanism when addressing structural and functional brain development in young children following traumatic brain injury (TBI); however, conventional imaging methods may not capture the complexities of post-trauma development.

Objectives: Magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) is a non-invasive targeted tissue ablation technique that can be applied to the nervous system. Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) can visualize and evaluate nervous system microstructure. Tractography algorithms can reconstruct fiber bundles which can be used for treatment navigation and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) metrics permit the quantitative assessment of nerve microstructure in vivo. There is a need for imaging tools to aid in the visualization and quantitative assessment of treatment-related nerve changes in MRgFUS. We

Abstract:
Chronic alcoholism is characterized by impaired control over emotionally motivated actions towards alcohol use. Neuropathologically, it is associated with widespread brain structural compromise marked by gray matter shrinkage, ventricular enlargement, and white matter degradation. The extent to which cortical damage itself or cortical disconnection by white matter fiber pathway disruption contribute to deficits in emotion, cognition, and behavior can be investigated with in vivo structural neuroimaging and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)-based quantitative fiber tracking.

Although the language-related fiber pathways in the human brain, such as the superior longitudinal fasciculus (SLF) and arcuate fasciculus (AF), are already well-known, understanding more sophisticated cortical regions connected by the fiber tracts is essential to scrutinize the structural connectivity of language circuits. With the regions of interest that were selected based on the Brainnetome atlas, the fiber orientation distribution estimation method for tractography was used to produce further elaborate connectivity information.

Abstract:
Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) is a non-invasive neuroimaging method that has become the most widely employed MRI modality for investigations of white matter fiber pathways. DTI has proven especially valuable for improving our understanding of normative white matter maturation across the life span and has also been used to index clinical pathology and cognitive function. Despite its increasing popularity, especially in pediatric research, the majority of existing studies examining infant white matter maturation depend on regional or white matter skeleton-based approaches.

Abstract Transopercular approach to the insula is indicated for resection of insular low-grade gliomas, particularly for Yasargil's 3B, 5A, and 5B types. Nevertheless, the infrequent location and its challenging approach make it difficult to master the surgery. Consequently, a realistic laboratory training model might help to acquire key surgical skills. In this video, we describe a cadaveric-based model simulating the resection of a temporo-insular low-grade glioma.

Background: The corpus callosum (CC) is the most prominent white matter connection for interhemispheric information transfer. It is implicated in a variety of cognitive functions, which tend to decline with age. The region-specific projections of the fiber bundles with microstructural heterogeneity of the CC are associated with cognitive functions and diseases. However, how the CC is associated with the information transfer within functional networks and the connectivity changes during aging remain unclear.

Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) measurements and models provide information about brain connectivity and are sensitive to the physical properties of tissue microstructure. Diffusional Kurtosis Imaging (DKI) quantifies the degree of non-Gaussian diffusion in biological tissue from dMRI. These estimates are of interest because they were shown to be more sensitive to microstructural alterations in health and diseases than measures based on the total anisotropy of diffusion which are highly confounded by tissue dispersion and fiber crossings.

Abstract Purpose Fiber tracking (FT) is used in neurosurgical planning for the resection of lesions in proximity to fiber pathways, as it contributes to a substantial amelioration of postoperative neurological impairments. Currently, diffusion-tensor imaging (DTI)-based FT is the most frequently used technique; however, sophisticated techniques such as Q-ball (QBI) for high-resolution FT (HRFT) have suggested favorable results. Little is known about the reproducibility of both techniques in the clinical setting. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the intra- and interrater agreement for the
