Development of the corticospinal tract, arcuate fasciculus, and cingulum. Tract profiles of mean diffusivity (top) and fractional anisotropy (bottom) are shown for the left hemisphere corticospinal tract (CST, orange), arcuate fasciculus (blue), and cingulum (green). Splitting the group by age, and selecting 3 bins, displays mean lines of three groups: 8–15 (red), 15–30 (purple), and 30–50 (blue). For the CST, there is a region that shows a decrease in FA with development, and this location of the tract is highlighted on the plot using the “brushable tracts” feature (shaded gray box). The linked view in the anatomy displays the portion of the CST that is brushed in the plot demonstrating that this effect occurs in the anatomical portion of the CST known as the centrum semiovale, adjacent to the arcuate fasciculus. This linked visualization provides a connection between the data plots and the 3D Anatomy. Data and MATLAB code are available at https://github.com/YeatmanLab/AFQ-Browser_data (see Figure2_Development.m) and running AFQ-Browser instance at: https://YeatmanLab.github.io/AFQBrowser-demo/)
