Tractography results obtained from a healthy subject, showing tracts possibly associated with the seed point placed at the lower level of the internal capsule with connection probability >0.1 (A) and 0.01 (B), respectively. Note that it is generally believed that the corticospinal tracts do not cross to the contralateral hemisphere through the corpus callosum, indicating that users have to be cautious when selecting the probability threshold to display the results. In this case, therefore, a probability threshold of 0.1 seems to be a preferred choice to 0.01. The example shown here was processed with Bayesian probabilistic tractography with 30 diffusion-encoding directions acquired.
