Abstract
Did you know that even though tractography is often considered a computationally expensive and offline process, the latest algorithms can now be performed in real-time without sacrificing accuracy? Interactive real-time tractography has proven to be valuable in surgical planning and has the potential to enhance neuromodulation therapies, highlighting the importance of speed and precision in the generation of tractograms. This demand has driven the development of nearly 50 visualization tools over the past two decades, with advances in interactive real-time tractography offering new possibilities and providing rich insights into brain connectivity.
期刊介绍:
Brain Structure & Function publishes research that provides insight into brain structure−function relationships. Studies published here integrate data spanning from molecular, cellular, developmental, and systems architecture to the neuroanatomy of behavior and cognitive functions. Manuscripts with focus on the spinal cord or the peripheral nervous system are not accepted for publication. Manuscripts with focus on diseases, animal models of diseases, or disease-related mechanisms are only considered for publication, if the findings provide novel insight into the organization and mechanisms of normal brain structure and function.
