Abstract
⺠MR data and fiber dissection studies show anatomically defined fiber tracts composing ventral and dorsal language streams. ⺠The major fiber tract of the dorsal stream is the arcuate fasciculus. ⺠The major tract of the ventral stream is the inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus. ⺠There are considerable differences in fiber architecture between the monkey and the human brain. ⺠Polarized light imaging reproduces the described fiber architecture of these pathways with higher detail.
