1 Brain miswiring in tuberous sclerosis and autism.
Brain miswiring in tuberous sclerosis and autism. A and B, These diffusion tensor tractography images of the brain, analyzed and visualized with the CRKit software developed in the Computational Radiology Laboratory at Children's Hospital Boston, Massachusetts, illustrate the disorganization of white matter fibers in a 17-year-old girl with TSC and autism (A) compared with a healthy girl of the same age (B). In the affected girl, the white matter fiber bundles that carry information from the thalamus of the brain to the visual cortex are less organized, with far fewer axons connecting to the cortex. The brighter colors in the healthy brain illustrate greater structural integrity of the tracts. T.Y. Poussaint AJNR Am J Neuroradiol 2011;32: ©2011 by American Society of Neuroradiology
