Synopsis

Mesoscopic diffusion datasets allow to study the superficial tracts of the human brain. We exploit the new Chenonceau Dataset, an ultra-high resolution diffusion-weighted dataset, to investigate the organization of short fibers ( between 10 and 60 mm ) in the whole brain.

To achieve this goal, we process the dense Chenonceau connectogram with a hierarchical clustering algorithm to obtain coherent fiber bundles, sorted over a centimetric range. It leads to the first density mapping of short fibers across the whole human brain. This mapping displays important inter-hemispheric variations, supporting the functional lateralization of various functional networks.
