I. Introduction
In diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging (DT-MRI), a set of diffusion-weighted (DW) MR images is collected and used to form estimates of the self-diffusion tensor in each voxel of the imaged volume [1], [2]. The diffusion tensor model yields estimates of mean diffusivity, diffusion anisotropy, and fibre orientation. This information has been employed over the last nine years in various attempts to reconstruct noninvasively the pathways of white matter fasciculi within the brain using a variety of algorithms that are generically referred to as fibre-tracking or tractography (e.g., [3]–[13]).
