Fuzzy Fibers: Uncertainty in dMRI Tractography - Scientific Visualization: Uncertainty, Multifield, Biomedical, and Scalable Visualization - page 85

final tractography result are still missing. One challenge faced by visualization sys-
tems that aim to aid understanding of these uncertainties is to display this additional
information efficiently and effectively, without causing visual clutter.
Ultimately, uncertainty visualization should contribute to making fiber tracking
a more reliable tool for neuroscience research, and to conveying the information
needed for the decision making process in clinical practice.
