Example exclusion points and seed regions for the left optic radiations overlaid on the MNI152_1mm standard brain37. The lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) was our seed region in each hemisphere (left shown in orange). Our exclusion masks included: a region anterior to the LGN to avoid longitudinal fibers being included (blue), the brainstem (yellow), the midline (green) and a region posterior to the LGN (purple) to help capture the curvature of the optic radiations close to the LGN. Exclusion points were the mirrored along the midline for the right hemisphere for the LGN, posterior point (purple) and brainstem points (yellow).
