Brainlab Elements Fibertracking revolutionizes neurosurgery with the constrained spherical deconvolution (CSD) analysis module.1 This software enables the visualization and analysis of brain white matter pathways for enhanced neurological understanding and patient care.
Switching between deterministic diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)-based and probabilistic CSD-based tractography enables users to focus on critical and patient-specific visualization.

I believe having multiple algorithms or models within the same planning software is beneficial. It allows us to view brain structures from more rigid to more flexible perspectives, enabling fine-tuning between models to achieve the most accurate anatomical outcomes. Moreover, the introduction of probabilistic tractography is one of the most significant advancements to reconstruct the complexity of white matter architecture.

More information to elevate your decision-making
In addition to deterministic fiber tracking, Elements Fibertracking gives you the option to see even more with the addition of probabilistic fiber tractography. Switch between these two modes to visualize complex fiber tracts near tumor or edema regions.1
DTI-based deterministic tractography
Deterministic DTI-based fiber tracking provides a robust single and dual tensor model able to reconstruct straightforward pathways, aiding visualization and interpretation of results.
CSD-based probabilistic tractography1
Probabilistic CSD-based fiber tracking is an advanced tracking method that allows for the identification of multiple fiber directions within a voxel, overcoming the limitation of the DTI-based technique when dealing with crossing, fanning or high angulation fibers, or when navigating through regions of edema.
