Tractography Challenge ISMRM 2015 High-resolution Data

The ground truth of this tractography validation data set was defined based on the fiber bundle geometry of a high-quality Human Connectome Project (HCP) dataset, constructed from multiple whole-brain global tractography maps. An expert radiologist extracted 25 major tracts (i.e., bundles of streamlines) from the tractogram. These association, projection and commissural fibers covered more than 70% of the white matter across the whole brain. The dataset features a brain-like macro-structure of long-range connections, mimicking an in vivo HCP-quality acquisition based on a simulated diffusion signal.
