This coronal (from the front) color DTI (diffusion tensor imaging) image depicts the major white matter tracts in the brain. By convention tracts oriented from anterior to posterior (front to back) are green, tracts oriented from side to side are red and those tracts oriented superior to inferior (head to toe) are blue. cpt = corticopontine tract, cst = corticospinal tract, uf = uncinate fasciculus, ilf = inferior longitudinal fasciculus, cg = cingulum, r = red nucleus, ifo = inferior frontal occipital fasciculus, cc = corpus callosum, atr = anterior thalamic radiations, acr = anterior coronal radiata, fmi = forceps minor, fmj = forceps major, pul = pulvinar of thalamus, vpm = ventral posterior medial thalamic nucleus, vpl = ventral posterolateral thalamic nucleus, ec = external capsule, ex = extreme capsule, cl = claustrum, slf = superior longitudinal fasciculus, rlic = rentrolenticular internal capsule, cg = cingulum, alic = anterior limb of internal capsule, ot = optic tract, fxc = columns of the fornix, ac = anterior commisure, uf = uncinate fasciculus, fxb = body of fornix, plic = posterior limb internal capsule, hipf = fimbria of hippocampus, cgh = hippocampus of cingulum, ctt = central tegmental tract, pcr = posterior corona radiata, ptr = posterior thalamic radiations
