An anatomic review of thalamolimbic fiber tractography: ultra-high resolution direct visualization of thalamolimbic fibers anterior thalamic radiation, superolateral and inferomedial medial forebrain bundles, and newly identified septum pellucidum tract.

Background: Images obtained through ultra-high-field 7.0-tesla magnetic resonance imaging with track-density imaging provide clear, high-resolution tractograms that have been hitherto unavailable, especially in deep brain areas such as the limbic and thalamic regions. This study is a largely pictorial description of the deep fiber tracts in the brain using track-density images obtained with 7.
