The Benefits and implementations of Diffusion tensor imaging and Neural Fiber Tractography in Brain Surgery
Background and Aim: The methods for detecting brain activation with fMRI, MRI provides a way to measure the anatomical connections which enable lightning-fast communication among neurons that specialize in different kinds of brain functions. Diffusion tensor imaging is able to measure the direction of bundles of the axonal fibers which are all aligned. Besides mapping white matter fiber tracts,...
متن کاملDiffusion Tensor Imaging and Tractography
In selected patients with medically refractory epilepsy, surgical treatment can render the patients seizure free or significantly reduce seizure frequency. Temporal lobe resection (TLR) for temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most commonly performed epilepsy surgery procedure. A visual field defect (VFD) due to injury to the optic radiation (OR) may occur after TLR. Diffusion tensor imaging (DT...
متن کاملSegmenting Fiber Bundles in Diffusion Tensor Images
We consider the problem of segmenting fiber bundles in diffusion tensor images. We cast this problem as a manifold clustering problem in which different fiber bundles correspond to different submanifolds of the space of diffusion tensors. We first learn a local representation of the diffusion tensor data using a generalization of the locally linear embedding (LLE) algorithm from Euclidean to di...
متن کاملComparison of Parameter Threshold Combinations for Diffusion Tensor Tractography in Chronic Stroke Patients and Healthy Subjects
BACKGROUND Although quantitative evaluation of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data seemed to be extremely important for clinical research its application is under debate. Besides fractional anisotropy (FA) the quantitative comparison between hemispheres of the number of fibers reconstructed by means of diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) is commonly used. However, the tractography-related param...
