Abstract in brief

  • The text discusses a new real-time fiber tracking (RTT) tool for brain connectivity that can instantly visualize white matter tracts from diffusion MRI data, making it easier to study brain wiring noninvasively.
  • Unlike traditional methods that use fixed parameters and require offline processing, this RTT technique adapts to different brain regions and subjects by using a novel equation based on principal directions, and it runs efficiently on ordinary CPUs without needing GPUs.
  • The tool has been tested on both phantom and human datasets, showing advantages over existing offline methods, especially in neurosurgical planning where it helps identify fibers infiltrating tumor areas that might be missed with standard tracking settings.]

@baranaydogan @ViljamiSairanen @3DSlicerApp Very cool! Here we did it on the peaks (FOD was too computationally expensive at the time) https://t.co/tAM5nIBwsz
