“…Hence, recent studies have often used the RN (Palesi et al, 2015;Jakab et al, 2016;Fenoy et al, 2017;Schlaier et al, 2017;Petersen et al, 2018;Jang and Kwon, 2019) and/or the thalamus (Kwon et al, 2011;Surova et al, 2015;Bernard et al, 2016;Jakab et al, 2016;Meola et al, 2016;Mollink et al, 2016;Fenoy et al, 2017;Oh et al, 2017;Pieterman et al, 2017;Petersen et al, 2018;Jang and Kwon, 2019) as a 'waypoint region' to reconstruct the streamlines originating from the cerebellum and projecting in the cerebrum via tractography, but none of them reported the streamlines originating from the cerebellum and projecting in the left IFG. As mentioned previously, Ji et al (2019) reconstructed the decussate cerebellothalamocortical pathway, including those projecting into BA 44 and BA 45, without using the RN or the thalamus as a "waypoint mask." They declare that 85 to 98% and 100% of the whole reconstructed pathway passed through the contralateral RN and contralateral thalamus, respectively.…”
