Combining the Finite Element Method with Structural Connectome-based Analysis for Modeling Neurotrauma: Connectome Neurotrauma Mechanics
Figure 2
Schematic showing how structural network edges are degraded over time.
Red voxels indicate that the chosen critical cellular death threshold, , is reached. For this study, DTI tracts that traverse a damaged voxel are removed, thus degrading the connection strength of the network edge.
