White matter fiber tracking using diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) provides a powerful approach to map brain connections, but they are not completely reliable both in academic and clinical context. This is because most methods infer global connectivity from local information,leading to a high rate of false positive. We propose a method to include anatomical prior in the tractography algorithm. We show on synthetic DiSCo data that including this prior on two state-of-the-art tractography algorithms could improve the overall shape of the tractograms.
