Apparent Fibre Density: A New Measure for High Angular Resolution Diffusion-Weighted Image Analysis
Introduction Numerous clinical studies have used voxel based analysis of diffusion tensor (DT) invariants, such as fractional anisotropy (FA) [1], to investigate group differences in white matter (see [2] for a review). However, results are difficult to interpret in regions with crossing fibres due to the simple Gaussian diffusion model assumed with the DT. High Angular Resolution Diffusion-wei...
متن کاملHeritability and genetic correlation between the cerebral cortex and associated white matter connections.
The aim of this study is to investigate the genetic influence on the cerebral cortex, based on the analyses of heritability and genetic correlation between grey matter (GM) thickness, derived from structural MR images (sMRI), and associated white matter (WM) connections obtained from diffusion MRI (dMRI). We measured on sMRI the cortical thickness (CT) from a large twin imaging cohort using a s...
متن کاملHARDI Based Pattern Classifiers for the Identification of White Matter Pathologies
The paper presents a method for creating abnormality classifiers from high angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI) data. We utilized the fiber orientation distribution (FOD) diffusion model to represent the local WM architecture of each subject. The FOD images are then spatially normalized to a common template using a non-linear registration technique. Regions of homogeneous white matter a...
متن کاملWhite matter atlas generation using HARDI based automated parcellation
Most diffusion imaging studies have used subject registration to an atlas space for enhanced quantification of anatomy. However, standard diffusion tensor atlases lack information in regions of fiber crossing and are based on adult anatomy. The degree of error associated with applying these atlases to studies of children for example has not yet been estimated but may lead to suboptimal results....
متن کاملReduced Encoding Persistent Angular Structure
Introduction Persistent angular structure (PAS) MRI [1] is one of many approaches that recover complex white matter fibre configurations within single voxels of high angular resolution diffusion MRI (HARDI) data. It continues to exhibit impressive performance compared to other state of the art methods [2], but at the expense of unreasonably long reconstruction times. Here, we propose and test a...
