Brain fibres, DTI MRI scan C017 / 7037
Brain fibres. 3D diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of a selection of nerve pathways (green/yellow) in the brain. The brain is seen from above, with the front of the brain at top. The ventricles are pink and the brains cortical surface is blue. Diffusion tensor imaging measures the direction of water diffusion, which in the brain reveals the orientation of nerve fibres. The technique is also known as tractography, with the resulting image known as a tractogram

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate network of brain fibres, captured through a cutting-edge imaging technique called diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The image reveals a 3D representation of nerve pathways in vibrant green and yellow hues against a striking black background. From an aerial perspective, we observe the brain with its front positioned at the top. The pink-colored ventricles provide contrast to the blue cortical surface of the brain. DTI measures water diffusion within the brain, allowing us to discern the orientation of nerve fibres. This innovative technique is also referred to as tractography, producing what is known as a tractogram. With its emphasis on structure and anatomy, this photograph offers valuable insights into neurology and medicine. It highlights both normalcy and health within our biological systems while emphasizing the complexity and interconnectedness of our neural pathways. As we delve into this mesmerizing image, we gain a deeper appreciation for how our central nervous system functions. Each fibre represents an essential connection that facilitates communication between different regions of our brains. Through Sherbrooke Connectivity Imaging Lab's expertise in capturing such detailed images, they have provided us with an awe-inspiring glimpse into one aspect of human biology that continues to fascinate researchers worldwide.
