Evaluation of tractogram filtering methods using human-like connectome phantoms

Tractography algorithms are prone to reconstructing spurious connections. The set of streamlines generated with tractography can be post-processed to retain the streamlines that are most biologically plausible. Several microstructure-informed filtering algorithms are available for this purpose, however, the comparative performance of these methods has not been extensively evaluated. In this study, we aim to evaluate streamline filtering and post-processing algorithms using simulated …
