MRI is used to produce images of tissue in the body. DTI, specifically, makes it possible to track the effects of nerves where they are in the brain. This project includes a shell script and a guide for using the FMRIB Software Library, followed by StarTrack and then Trackvis in order to track difficult areas in the brain. The focus is on the trigeminal nerve (CN V). The method can be used to compare nerves in the same patient, or as a comparison to a healthy brain.
