Diffusion-weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging (dMRI) can unveil the microstructure of the brain white matter. The analysis of the anisotropy observed in the dMRI contrast with tractography methods can help to understand the pattern of connections between brain regions and characterize neurological d...
