These overall differences in DTI characteristics between healthy subjects and our patient population provide evidence that the CC is impacted by distal neuropathologies, [25][26][27][28][29][30] potentially due to Wallerian Degeneration caused by the tumors. 30,31 However, between each patient group, the differences in DTI characteristics suggest an altered response in the patients' brains that is determined by the type of the tumor.…”
