The knowledge of the interhemispheric connectivity
alterations in non-human primates during development and
aging may provide important implications for functional
and behavioural alterations in human. Compare to
diffusion tensor imaging, diffusion spectrum imaging
(DSI) tractography provides a novel and unprecedented
opportunity for studying complicated fiber connections.
In this work, DSI tractography was used to evaluate the
cortically specific changes of transcallosal
connectivity of formalin-fixed macaque brains from
infancy to late adulthood, and differential change
patterns were found in anterior to posterior brain
lobes.
