“…The basic idea of counting tracks has been around in diffusion MRI for several years (e.g., (Behrens et al, 2003;Roberts et al, 2005;Thomas et al, 2005)). These earlier studies used track-density quantification to estimate the probability of connection between regions, as a tool to parcellate brain structures from probabilistic tractography results, or as a summary parameter to characterise fibre bundles for intra-and inter-subject quantitative analysis.…”
