> If we select two ROIs and set them to "end" and filter the tracts, the number of connections matches the connectivity matrix (end to end matrix). However, if we select one region and set it to "end" and filter the tracts, the number of tracts does not match the sum of the corresponding row (divded by 2) of the connectivity matrix (the number of tracts displayed is much higher).
Each track has two termination locations, and selecting only one "end"
region requires either of the two termination locations to stop in the
region.
Thus it is not as strict as selecting two "end" regions (which
requires both to stop within the two end regions ).

A tract can be counted multiple times as long as it fulfills the
requirement to pass the region pair.

We are seeing things visually when we look at the tracts that don't seem to show up when we analyze the connectivity matrix. Is there a way to verify that differences might be due to the diagonal entry being set equal to zero? Or could it be a different issue?
There are some tricky cases that can be double-counted and caused inconsistency.
Hope my input helps to troubleshoot the problem.
