Functional and anatomical connectivity-based parcellation of human cingulate cortex.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Human cingulate cortex (CC) has been implicated in many functions, which is highly suggestive of the existence of functional subregions.

Methods

In this study, we used resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) to parcellate the human cingulate cortex (CC) based on resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) patterns and anatomical connectivity (AC) patterns, to analyze the rsFC patterns and the AC patterns of different subregions, and to recognize whether the parcellation results obtained by the two different methods were consistent.

Results

The CC was divided into six functional subregions, including the anterior cingulate cortex, dorsal anterior midcingulate cortex, ventral anterior midcingulate co
