A revised limbic system model for memory, emotion and behaviour

M Catani, F Dell'Acqua, MT De Schotten - Neuroscience & Biobehavioral …, 2013 - Elsevier
Emotion, memories and behaviour emerge from the coordinated activities of regions
connected by the limbic system. Here, we propose an update of the limbic model based on the …

The anatomy of fronto-occipital connections from early blunt dissections to contemporary tractography

SJ Forkel, MT de Schotten, JM Kawadler, F Dell'Acqua… - Cortex, 2014 - Elsevier
The occipital and frontal lobes are anatomically distant yet functionally highly integrated to
generate some of the most complex behaviour. A series of long associative fibres, such as the …

Modelling white matter with spherical deconvolution: How and why?

F Dell'Acqua, JD Tournier - NMR in Biomedicine, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Since the realization that diffusion MRI can probe the microstructural organization and
orientation of biological tissue in vivo and non‐invasively, a multitude of diffusion imaging …

A lateralized brain network for visuo-spatial attention

M Thiebaut de Schotten, F Dell'Acqua, S Forkel… - Nature …, 2011 - nature.com
Looking for a friend in the crowd, avoiding a sudden danger or contemplating a work of art
are some examples of actions based on the efficiency of our visuo-spatial attention system. …

[HTML][HTML] The challenge of mapping the human connectome based on diffusion tractography

…, LM Lacerda, R Barrett, F Dell'Acqua… - Nature …, 2017 - nature.com
Tractography based on non-invasive diffusion imaging is central to the study of human brain
connectivity. To date, the approach has not been systematically validated in ground truth …

Short frontal lobe connections of the human brain

M Catani, F Dell'Acqua, F Vergani, F Malik, H Hodge… - cortex, 2012 - Elsevier
Advances in our understanding of sensory-motor integration suggest a unique role of the
frontal lobe circuits in cognition and behaviour. Long-range afferent connections convey higher …

Atlasing location, asymmetry and inter-subject variability of white matter tracts in the human brain with MR diffusion tractography

MT De Schotten, A Bizzi, F Dell'Acqua, M Allin… - Neuroimage, 2011 - Elsevier
The purpose of this study is to create a white matter atlas of the human brain using diffusion
tensor imaging (DTI) tractography and to describe the constant and variable features of the …

Monkey to human comparative anatomy of the frontal lobe association tracts

MT de Schotten, F Dell'Acqua, R Valabregue, M Catani - Cortex, 2012 - Elsevier
The greater expansion of the frontal lobes along the phylogeny scale has been interpreted
as the signature of evolutionary changes underlying higher cognitive abilities in humans …

A novel frontal pathway underlies verbal fluency in primary progressive aphasia

…, CK Thompson, M Thiebaut de Schotten, F Dell'Acqua… - Brain, 2013 - academic.oup.com
The frontal aslant tract is a direct pathway connecting Broca’s region with the anterior cingulate
and pre-supplementary motor area. This tract is left lateralized in right-handed subjects, …

A modified damped Richardson–Lucy algorithm to reduce isotropic background effects in spherical deconvolution

F Dell'Acqua, P Scifo, G Rizzo, M Catani, A Simmons… - Neuroimage, 2010 - Elsevier
Spherical deconvolution methods have been applied to diffusion MRI to improve diffusion
tensor tractography results in brain regions with multiple fibre crossing. Recent developments, …
