Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating visualization data for a selected neuro-network. In one aspect, a method comprises: receiving selection data selecting a network in a brain of a subject; processing magnetic resonance image data of the brain to identify a set of tracts that are predicted to be included in the selected network; processing the set of tracts to identify a proper subset of the set of tracts as being spurious tracts; generating a set of valid tracts by filtering the spurious tracts from the set of tracts that are predicted to be included in the selected network; providing visualization data for the selected network showing a three-dimensional spatial representation of both: (i) the valid tracts, and (ii) the spurious tracts, wherein the spurious tracts are visually distinguished from the valid tracts.
