Real-time tractography: computation and visualization

Abstract

Did you know that even though tractography is often considered a computationally expensive and offline process, the latest algorithms can now be performed in real-time without sacrificing accuracy? Interactive real-time tractography has proven to be valuable in surgical planning and has the potential to enhance neuromodulation therapies, highlighting the importance of speed and precision in the generation of tractograms. This demand has driven the development of nearly 50 visualization tools over the past two decades, with advances in interactive real-time tractography offering new possibilities and providing rich insights into brain connectivity.
