Comparisons to other pipelines

Other pipelines for preprocessing DWI data are currently being developed. Below are tables comparing their current feature sets. These other

• Tractoflow

• PreQual

• MRtrix3_connectome

• dMRIPrep

dMRIPrep exclusively performs preprocessing and is therefore omitted from the reconstruction and tractography sections.
