Fig 1. Localization of regions of interest. The upper row of images shows axial color-coded maps of FA with region-of-interest localization in the genu (left image), body (middle image), and splenium (right image) of the corpus callosum. Regions of interest are shown in white. The lower row of images shows the corresponding axial FLAIR scans.

Fig 2. Regions of interest with reconstructed fibers in a patient with mild TBI. Regions of interest and fibers are superimposed on T2-weighted images. The upper 2 images show a lateral view with typical region-of-interest localization in the genu, body, and splenium without (left upper image) and with (right upper image) reconstructed fibers passing through. The lower images show the same regions of interest and reconstructed fibers in the anterior oblique view.
