White matter tract atlas has gained interests in the
neuroscience community because it provides 3D anatomy of
white matter fiber pathways in the human brain.
Recently, we constructed a diffusion spectrum imaging (DSI)
template (NTU-DSI-122) from 122 healthy adults DSI
datasets. Difficult fiber pathways which are of
small sizes or have frequent crossings with other fiber
tracts were reconstructed on the template. The tract
atlas can be used to understand the geometric features
of the white matter fiber pathways. Moreover, It allows
us to implement a template-based approach that enables
the microstructural integrity of the tracts in the human
brain.
