Background. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and white matter tractography (WMT) are
promising techniques for estimating the course, extent, and connectivity patterns of the white …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and white matter
tractography (WMT) are promising techniques for estimating the course, extent, and …

BACKGROUND: Characterization of WM alteration using MR imaging is important in the pre-
and intraoperative assessment of brain tumors. This study characterizes the extent and …

Object. Preserving vital cerebral function while maximizing tumor resection is a principal
goal in surgical neurooncology. Although functional magnetic resonance imaging has been …

OBJECTIVE:: To demonstrate the role of diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) in preoperative
mapping of eloquent tracts in relation to cerebral tumors and to determine whether it is …

Background: Diffusion tensor MRI fiber tractography (DTT) is the first non-invasive in vivo
technique for delineating specific white matter (WM) tracts. In cerebral neoplasm, DTT can …

OBJECTIVE: Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) allows in vivo delineation of brainstem white
matter tracts. The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not abnormalities of DTI …

BACKGROUND: Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) infers the trajectory and location of large
white matter tracts by measuring the anisotropic diffusion of water. DTI data may then be …

We review the normal anatomy of the white matter (WM) tracts as they appear on directional
diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) color maps, which will almost certainly be available to the …

Background Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)–based tractography has become an integral part
of preoperative diagnostic imaging in many neurosurgical centers, and other nonsurgical …
