When performing a tractography experiment it is essential to know whether a reconstructed tract results from the diffusion signal itself or from some random effect or noise. In this study, we introduce a way to associate to every connection a confidence level. The reason why the latter greatly varies with the length of the tract is analyzed. We use this method to filter out the connections likely to be the result of noise and show the effect on the connectivity of the human visual system.
