In this study we explored fibre orientation dispersion in the corpus callosum using diffusion-weighted MRI, Polarized Light Imaging and Histology. Microscopic fibre orientations were derived from Polarized Light Imaging and histological myelin and glial cell staining, with the aim of understanding the microstructural features that correlate with the diffusion signal.
