Dear experts,

I have a couple questions about the NT parameter from the 3dTrackID *.grid output file.

- I believe streamline count is another term used synonymously with number of tracts (NT), correct?
- Given one subject, if NT = 0 for a region, should all other indices (i.e. FA, MD, RD, etc) also be 0?
- Am I correct that NT and PV should be strongly correlated?
- Related to the above question, would individual tracts vary in terms of thickness? For example, if NT = 4000 in a region, are all 4000 tracts the same size?
- Should we expect any sort of relationship (e.g. positive correlation) between NT and FA within a region?

Thank you for your help!
