Comparison of a postmortem anatomical preparation (A), T1-weighted image
(B), and the DTI-based color map (C). In the anatomical preparation, the
gray matter was removed to reveal the structural details of the white matter.
In the color map, blue pixels have fibers running horizontally (anterior
- posterior), green vertically (superior - inferior), and red perpendicular
to the plane (left - right). The fiber directions based on the DTI measurement
agree very well with the anatomical preparation (A), which can not be appreciated
in the conventional MRI (B). |
