Identification of a distinct association fiber tract “IPS-FG” to connect the intraparietal sulcus areas and fusiform gyrus by white matter dissection and tractography

The intraparietal sulcus (IPS) in the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) is well-known as an interface for sensorimotor integration in visually guided actions. However, our understanding of the human neural network between the IPS and the cortical visual areas has been devoid of anatomical specificity. We here identified a distinctive association fiber tract “IPS-FG” to connect the IPS areas and the fusiform gyrus (FG), a high-level visual region,...
