Diffusion Mr Image Segmentation: towards Global Brain Connectivity Analysis
The exploration of the human connectome, a term denoting the global structural connectivity of the brain, is accessible to MRI at millimeter and centimeter scales. In this paper, we propose a methodology to map the connectome by constructing normalized whole-brain structural connection matrices derived from diffusion spectrum MRI tractography. Using a template-based approach, we propose a robus...
متن کاملA Connectome-Based Comparison of Diffusion MRI Schemes
Diffusion MRI has evolved towards an important clinical diagnostic and research tool. Though clinical routine is using mainly diffusion weighted and tensor imaging approaches, Q-ball imaging and diffusion spectrum imaging techniques have become more widely available. They are frequently used in research-oriented investigations in particular those aiming at measuring brain network connectivity. ...
متن کاملSparse and Optimal Acquisition Design for Diffusion MRI and Beyond
PURPOSE Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in combination with functional MRI promises a whole new vista for scientists to investigate noninvasively the structural and functional connectivity of the human brain-the human connectome, which had heretofore been out of reach. As with other imaging modalities, diffusion MRI data are inherently noisy and its acquisition time-consuming. Furthe...
متن کاملA Diffusion MRI Tractography Connectome of the Mouse Brain and Comparison with Neuronal Tracer Data
Interest in structural brain connectivity has grown with the understanding that abnormal neural connections may play a role in neurologic and psychiatric diseases. Small animal connectivity mapping techniques are particularly important for identifying aberrant connectivity in disease models. Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging tractography can provide nondestructive, 3D, brain-wide connectivit...
متن کاملImage Quality Transfer via Random Forest Regression: Applications in Diffusion MRI
This paper introduces image quality transfer. The aim is to learn the fine structural detail of medical images from high quality data sets acquired with long acquisition times or from bespoke devices and transfer that information to enhance lower quality data sets from standard acquisitions. We propose a framework for solving this problem using random forest regression to relate patches in the ...
