Enhancing bundle topology for tractography visualization using silhouette rendering

Global illumination rendering techniques are often considered the gold standard for displaying 3D structures. They are however computationally expensive and most neuroimaging software packages do not support such advanced methods. Here, we applied cartoon-like shading to tractography-derived bundles to enhance visualization of their topological features. Combined with glass-brain rendering, we believe that this non-realistic rendering technique can help both new comers to the field and experienced scientists to better perceive shape specific features of brain bundles, enhancing both neuroanatomical understanding and neurosurgical planning.
