Abstract:The extraordinary number of short association fibres (SAF) connecting neighbouring cortical areas is a prominent feature of the large gyrified human brain. The contribution of SAF to the human connectome is largely unknown because of methodological challenges in mapping them. We present a method to characterise cortico–cortical connectivity mediated by SAF in topologically organised cortical areas. We introduce the 'structural connective fields' (sCF) metric which specifically quantifies neuronal signal propag… Show more
