Optic radiation (OR) tractography aids surgical planning, but accuracy varies by method. Deterministic diffusion tensor imaging (Det-DTI) tractography underrepresents fiber complexity, whereas constrained spherical deconvolution with probabilistic tracking (Prob-CSD) resolves crossing fibers and improves anatomical fidelity. The aim of this study was to compare Det-DTI and Prob-CSD for OR\/ML delineation and to evaluate accuracy by correlating tract injury with postoperative VFD severity.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>METHODS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Adults who underwent anterior temporal epilepsy surgery at two centers (Alfred Hospital in Melbourne, Australia; Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee, US) were included. All patients underwent pre- and postoperative T1-weighted and diffusion-weighted MRI and automated postoperative perimetry. Det-DTI and Prob-CSD tractography pipelines, using the same expert-guided regions of interest, were compared. Tract injury was quantified as volumetric overlap between reconstructed ORs and resection cavities. VFD severity was measured as quadrant-specific visual field (QsVF) scores from perimetry. Reconstructed tract and estimated injury volumes were compared using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and their correlations with QsVF were assessed using Pearson correlation. Linear regression was used to assess whether Prob-CSD\u2013estimated tract injury independently predicted postoperative QsVF, with resection volume and surgical technique as covariates.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Overall, 33 patients (19 female, median age 39.1 years; 30 right handed and 11 left sided) were included in the analysis. Surgery comprised 9 anterior temporal lobectomies, 21 selective amygdalohippocampectomies, and 3 lesionectomies. Compared with Det-DTI, Prob-CSD tractography delineated significantly larger OR volumes (mean 20.18 \u00b1 4.76 cm\n                      <jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup>\n                      vs 1.48 \u00b1 1.05 cm\n                      <jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup>\n                      ; p = 8.34 \u00d710\n                      <jats:sup>\u22127<\/jats:sup>\n                      ) and identified greater tract injury volumes (mean 0.60 \u00b1 0.81 cm\n                      <jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup>\n                      vs 0.04 \u00b1 0.16 cm\n                      <jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup>\n                      ; p = 3.7 \u00d710\n                      <jats:sup>\u22126<\/jats:sup>\n                      ). Det-DTI failed to reconstruct ML in all but one case. Prob-CSD tract injury volumes correlated strongly with postoperative QsVF scores (r = \u20130.63, p = 7.35 \u00d710\n                      <jats:sup>\u22125<\/jats:sup>\n                      ), whereas Det-DTI showed a weaker nonsignificant association (r = \u20130.31, p = 0.08). Linear regression confirmed independent association between Prob-CSD tract injury and postoperative VFD severity (p = 0.002, SE = 7.23 \u00d710\n                      <jats:sup>\u22125<\/jats:sup>\n                      , adjusted R\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      = 0.34).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Prob-CSD tractography outperformed Det-DTI in reconstructing ML and reliably predicting postoperative VFDs, regardless of surgical technique and resection extent.
