Diffusion tensor tractography (DTT), derived from DTI, allows for identification and visualization of neural tracts in the Papez circuit (Concha et al., 2005; Kwon et al., 2010; Granziera et al., 2011; Jang and Yeo, 2013; Jang et al., 2014a). In the current study, using DTT, we report on a patient who showed injured thalamocortical tract between the anterior thalamic nuclei and the cingulate gyrus following a putaminal hemorrhage.展开更多
