Fiber Tract-Driven Topographical Mapping (FTTM) Reveals Microstructural Relevance for Interhemispheric Visuomotor Function in the Aging Brain
We present a novel approach – DTI-based fiber tract-driven topographical mapping – to map and measure the influence of age on the integrity of interhemispheric fibers and challenge their selective…
