Tissue thickness and central surface estimation using a projection scheme

چکیده
As expected, both methods have a higher RMS error for thickness estimation than for surface generation, both produce better results with PVE, and both perform better for the simpler gyral case compared to the sulcal case especially with small sulcal gap or strong asymmetries. Predicted by the sampling theorem, both show a strong increase of RMS error below sampling resolution for thickness measurements, but not for surface generation. INTRODUCTION

Brain Tissue Thickness Estimation using a Projection Scheme
Cortical thickness estimation can provide clinically relevant information with respect to several neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease (Thompson et. al., 2004) and schizophrenia (Kuperberg et. al., 2003). Previously, most cortical thickness measurements have focused solely on grey matter (GM) thickness. Here, we present a method that allows, besides GM thickness, also the thi...

The water wave generation by wave paddle and a freely falling rigid body are examined by using an Incompressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (ISPH). In the current ISPH method, the pressure was evaluated by solving pressure Poisson equation using a semi-implicit algorithm based on the projection scheme and the source term of pressure Poisson equation contains both of divergence free ve...

Background and Aim: In the present study, the cerebral surface landmarks in human fresh autopsy specimens were investigated. Methods and Materials/Patients: Totally, 37 fresh adult autopsy human brain specimens from the Rasht Forensic Medicine Center were enrolled. Four specimens were excluded because of some traumatic injuries to cerebral cortex. Demographic information of all cases was obt...
متن کاملCortical thickness and central surface estimation
Several properties of the human brain cortex, e.g., cortical thickness and gyrification, have been found to correlate with the progress of neuropsychiatric disorders. The relationship between brain structure and function harbors a broad range of potential uses, particularly in clinical contexts, provided that robust methods for the extraction of suitable representations of the brain cortex from...
متن کاملRetinal Ganglion Cell Complex in Alzheimer Disease: Comparing Ganglion Cell Complex and Central Macular Thickness in Alzheimer Disease and Healthy Subjects Using Spectral Domain-Optical Coherence Tomography
Introduction: Alzheimer disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia worldwide. The modalities to diagnose AD are generally expensive and limited. Both the central nervous system (CNS) and the retina are derived from the cranial neural crest; therefore, changes in retinal layers may reflect changes in the CNS tissue. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) machine can show delicate retinal layer...
