aMAP is a validated pipeline for registration and segmentation of high-resolution mouse brain data
The validation of automated image registration and segmentation is crucial for accurate and reliable mapping of brain connectivity and function in three-dimensional (3D) data sets. While validation standards are necessarily high and routinely met in the clinical arena, they have to date been lacking for high-resolution microscopy data sets obtained from the rodent brain. Here we present a tool ...
متن کاملAn Expectation Maximization Approach for Integrated Registration, Segmentation, and Intensity Correction
This paper presents a statistical framework which combines the registration of an atlas with the segmentation of MR images. We use an Expectation Maximization-based algorithm to find a solution within the model, which simultaneously estimates image inhomogeneities, anatomical labelmap, and a mapping from the atlas to the image space. An example of the approach is given for a brain structure-dep...
متن کاملComparing 511 keV Attenuation Maps Obtained from Different Energy Mapping Methods for CT Based Attenuation Correction of PET Data
Introduction: The advent of dual-modality PET/CT scanners has revolutionized clinical oncology by improving lesion localization and facilitating treatment planning for radiotherapy. In addition, the use of CT images for CT-based attenuation correction (CTAC) decreases the overall scanning time and creates a noise-free attenuation map (6map). CTAC methods include scaling, s...
متن کاملBrain Connectivity Reflected in Electroencephalogram Coherence in Individuals With Autism: A Meta-analysis
Introduction: Many theories have been proposed about the etiology of autism. One is related to brain connectivity in patients with autism. Several studies have reported brain connectivity changes in autism disease. This study was performed on Electroencephalogram (EEG) studies that evaluated patients with autism, using functional brain connectivity, and compared them with typically-developing i...
متن کاملIntrathoracic Airway Tree Segmentation from CT Images Using a Fuzzy Connectivity Method
Introduction: Virtual bronchoscopy is a reliable and efficient diagnostic method for primary symptoms of lung cancer. The segmentation of airways from CT images is a critical step for numerous virtual bronchoscopy applications. Materials and Methods: To overcome the limitations of the fuzzy connectedness method, the proposed technique, called fuzzy connectivity - fuzzy C-mean (FC-FCM), utilized...
