abstract = {Deriving white matter (WM) bundles in vivo has thus far
mainly been applied in research settings, leveraging high
angular resolution, multi-shell diffusion MRI (dMRI)
acquisitions that enable modern reconstruction methods.
However, these advanced acquisitions are both time-consuming
and costly to acquire. The ability to reconstruct WM bundles
in the massive amounts of existing single-shelled, lower
angular resolution data from legacy research studies and
healthcare systems would offer much broader clinical
applications and population-level generalizability. While
legacy scans may offer a valuable, large-scale complement to
contemporary research datasets, the reliability of white
matter bundles derived from these scans remains unclear.
Here, we leverage a large research dataset where each
64-direction dMRI scan was acquired as two independent
32-direction runs per subject. To investigate how a
state-of-the-art bundle-specific reconstruction method
generalizes to this data, we evaluated the test–retest
reliability of WM bundles reconstructed from the two
32-direction scans across three orientation distribution
function (ODF) reconstruction methods: generalized
q-sampling imaging (GQI), constrained spherical
deconvolution (CSD), and single-shell three-tissue CSD
(SS3T). We found that the majority of WM bundles could be
reliably extracted from dMRI scans that were acquired using
the 32-direction, single-shell acquisition scheme. The mean
Dice coefficient of reconstructed WM bundles was
consistently higher within subject than between subject for
all WM bundles and ODF reconstruction methods, illustrating
preservation of person-specific anatomy. Further, when using
features of the bundles to predict complex reasoning
assessed using a computerized cognitive battery, we observed
stable prediction accuracies (r: 0.15–0.36) across the
test–retest data. Among the three ODF reconstruction
methods, SS3T had a good balance between sensitivity and
specificity when comparing the reconstructed bundles to
atlas bundles, a high intra-class correlation of extracted
features, more plausible bundles, and strong predictive
performance. More broadly, these results demonstrate that
bundle-specific reconstruction can achieve robust
performance even on lower angular resolution, single-shell
dMRI, with particular advantages for ODF methods optimized
for single-shell data. This highlights the considerable
potential for dMRI collected in healthcare settings and
legacy research datasets to accelerate and expand the scope
of WM research.},
