Diffusion MRI has been proposed as a method to parcellate cortex into functionally distinct regions based on tractography-derived connectivity features. However, the accuracy of the parcellation has not been investigated extensively. This study aimed to validate DTI connectivity-based cortical parcellation by comparison to a histological gold-standard. The comparison reveals the potential and limitations of connectivity-based parcellation.
