A framework for callosal fiber distribution analysis.
This paper presents a framework for analyzing the spatial distribution of neural fibers in the brain, with emphasis on interhemispheric fiber bundles crossing through the corpus callosum. The proposed approach combines methodologies for fiber tracking and spatial normalization and is applied on diffusion tensor images and standard magnetic resonance images.
