This axial (cross sectional) colour DTI (diffusion tensor imaging) image depicts the major white matter tracts in the brain. By convention tracts oriented from anterior to posterior (front to back) are green, tracts oriented from side to side are red and those tracts oriented superior to inferior (head to toe) are blue. vtt = ventral tegmental tract, cst = corticospinal tract, uf = uncinate fasciculus, ilf = inferior longitudinal fasciculus, cg = cingulum, r = red nucleus, cp = cerebral peduncle, ac = anterior commissure, fxc = columns of fornix, fxp = precommisural fornix, fp = fronto-pontine tract, cs = corticospinal tract, tpo = temporal parietal occipital tract, hipf = fimbria of hippocampus, ss = sagittal stratum, cc = corpus callosum, atr = anterior thalamic radiations, acr = anterior coronal radiata, sn = substantia nigra |
