Diffusion-weighted MRI based fiber tractography (FT) is
widely used and its methodology is constantly improving.
Despite the many pitfalls and limitations of FT, we
present a description of fiber tract pathways in the
orbitofrontal / prefrontal cortex, which to the best
of our knowledge have not been reported before with
FT. A consistent tract configuration across multiple
subjects and different data cohorts was observed which
boost our confidence that this finding is not based on
artifacts.
