### Note

The SLF is distinguished from the AF (even though SNOMED and UMLS treat them as synonymous), per Makris N, et al. "Segmentation of Subcomponents within the Superior Longitudinal Fascicle in Humans: A Quantitative, In Vivo, DT-MRI Study." Cerebral Cortex 15, no. 6 (June 1, 2005): 854–69. doi:10.1093/cercor/bhh186. Hence the SNOMED concept for SLF/AF (T-A2820, 89202009, C0228270) is not used. NeuroNames does not describe the other subcomponents of the SLF than the AF, so DCM codes are assigned.
