Cocluster analysis of thalamo-cortical fibre tracts extracted from diffusion tensor MRI

: As the central relay station of the human brain, the thalamus modulates sensory signals to and from the cerebral cortex. The reciprocal connectivity between the cerebral cortex and the thalamus is believed to play an essential role in consciousness and various neurological disorders. Thus, in-vivo analysis of thalamo-cortical connectivity is important for our understanding of normal and pathological brain processes. In this paper
