Spherical symmetric diffusion problem

چکیده
We introduce a general and versatile MS Windows application for solving the spherically symmetric diffusion problem, involving up to two coupled spherically symmetric Smoluchowski equations. The application is based on a modular, configurable, user-friendly graphical interface, in which input parameters are introduced through a graphical representation of the system of partial differential equations and output attributes can be obtained graphically during propagation.

Determination of Fiber Direction in High Angular Resolution Diffusion Images using Spherical Harmonics Functions and Wiener Filter
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) MRI is a noninvasive imaging method of the cerebral tissues whose fibers directions are not evaluated correctly in the regions of the crossing fibers. For the same reason the high angular resolution diffusion images (HARDI) are used for estimation of the fiber direction in each voxel. One of the main methods to specify the direction of fibers is usage of the spher...

By use of Green 's functions f o r the diffusional motion a very concise formulation and computation of correlation functions is possible. For an axially symmetric overall diffusion with internal rotation about one and two axes correlation functions of a second rank spherical tensor are calculated. The results comprise all the solutions of the pertinent problem as given so far and allow the ext...
متن کاملODF MAXIMA EXTRACTION IN SPHERICAL HARMONIC REPRESENTATION VIA ANALYTICAL SEARCH SPACE REDUCTION By
By revealing complex fiber structure through the orientation distribution function (ODF), q-ball imaging has recently become a popular reconstruction technique in diffusion-weighted MRI. In this paper, we propose an analytical dimension reduction approach to ODF maxima extraction. We show that by expressing the ODF, or any antipodally symmetric spherical function, in the common fourth order rea...
متن کاملA polynomial based approach to extract the maxima of an antipodally symmetric spherical function and its application to extract fiber directions from the Orientation Distribution Function in Diffusion MRI
In this paper we extract the geometric characteristics from an antipodally symmetric spherical function (ASSF), which can be described equivalently in the spherical harmonic (SH) basis, in the symmetric tensor (ST) basis constrained to the sphere, and in the homogeneous polynomial (HP) basis constrained to the sphere. All three bases span the same vector space and are bijective when the rank of...
متن کاملOn the Use of Antipodal Optimal Dimensionality Sampling Scheme on the Sphere for Recovering Intra-voxel Fibre Structure in Diffusion MRI
In diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI), the diffusion signal can be reconstructed from measurements collected on single or multiple spheres in q-space using a spherical harmonic expansion. The number of measurements that can be acquired is severely limited and should be as small as possible. Previous sampling schemes have focused on using antipodal symmetry to reduce the number of sampl...
