概要	Diffusion Tensor Imaging Tractography (DTI tractography) is a non-invasive neuroimaging technique that maps white matter fiber bundles in the brain by tracking the three-dimensional diffusion of water molecules along axons. Pioneered by Basser, Mori, and Conturo in the 1990s, DTI tractography reveals the structural connectivity of the brain, enabling visualization of major pathways (corpus callosum, arcuate fasciculus, corticospinal tract) and assessment of fiber integrity. It is widely used in neurosurgical planning, neurological disease assessment, and brain connectivity research.	CT Iterative Reconstruction (IR) is a computational technique that reconstructs tomographic images from raw X-ray projection data by iteratively refining an estimate of tissue attenuation until it matches the measured projections. Developed from algebraic reconstruction techniques pioneered by Gordon in 1974, iterative reconstruction has revolutionized clinical CT by enabling high-quality images at reduced radiation dose. Variants such as Adaptive Statistical Iterative Reconstruction (ASIR) and Model-Based Iterative Reconstruction (MBIR) are now standard on modern CT scanners.
