SIFT: Spherical-deconvolution informed filtering of tractograms
Abstract
Diffusion MRI allows the structural connectivity of the whole brain (the 'tractogram') to be estimated in vivo non-invasively using streamline tractography. The biological accuracy of these data sets is however limited by the inherent biases associated with the reconstruction method. Here we propose a method to retrospectively improve the accuracy of these reconstructions, by selectively filtering out streamlines from the tractogram in a manner that improves the fit between the streamline reconstruction and the underlying diffusion images. This filtering is guided by the results of spherical deconvolution of the diffusion signal, hence the acronym SIFT: spherical-deconvolution informed filtering of tractograms. Data sets processed by this algorithm show a marked reduction in known reconstruction biases, and improved biological plausibility. Emerging methods in diffusion MRI, particularly those that aim to characterise and compare the structural connectivity of the brain, should benefit from the improved accuracy of the reconstruction.

SIFT reduces local streamline density bias by filtering the tractogram to improve the fit between the overall distribution of streamlines and the FOD in every voxel, which may improve accuracy of connectome reconstruction.
“Recently, a new method, called spherical-deconvolution informed filtering of tractograms (SIFT) has been proposed to reduce local streamline density bias by filtering the tractogram (i.e., selectively removing streamlines) to improve the fit between the overall distribution of streamlines and the FOD in every voxel, estimated from the diffusion-weighted image, which may improve accuracy of connect”

SIFT provides only the NOS adjusted based on voxel-wise spherical deconvolution.
“While in its original implementation SIFT (Smith et al., 2013) provides only the NOS adjusted based on voxel-wise spherical deconvolution, its evolution SIFT2 (Smith et al., 2015b) optimizes per-streamline cross-section multipliers to match a whole-brain tractogram to fixel-wise fiber densities and thus provides a value for each streamline that can be used (for example) to define the edge weights”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
