Diffusion tensor tractography of the motor white matter tracts in man: Current controversies and future directions.

The anatomy of the brain is extremely complex, and certain, even large structures, such as the corticospinal tract (CST), remain poorly understood. Diffusion tractography provides an opportunity to explore the white matter tracts in a fundamentally new way. In the current paper, we show how this technique has already added to our understanding of the anatomy of the CST.
