متن کاملWhite matter tractography using diffusion tensor deflection.
Diffusion tensor MRI provides unique directional diffusion information that can be used to estimate the patterns of white matter connectivity in the human brain. In this study, the behavior of an algorithm for white matter tractography is examined. The algorithm, called TEND, uses the entire diffusion tensor to deflect the estimated fiber trajectory. Simulations and imaging experiments on in vi...
متن کاملRegularized Stochastic White Matter Tractography Using Diffusion Tensor MRI
The development of Diffusion Tensor MRI has raised hopes in the neuro-science community for in vivo methods to track fiber paths in the white matter. A number of approaches have been presented, but there are still several essential problems that need to be solved. In this paper a novel fiber propagation model is proposed, based on stochastics and regularization, allowing paths originating in on...
متن کاملAssessing the effects of age on long white matter tracts using diffusion tensor tractography
Aging is associated with significant white matter deterioration and this deterioration is assumed to be at least partly a consequence of myelin degeneration. The present study investigated specific predictions of the myelodegeneration hypothesis using diffusion tensor tractography. This technique has several advantages over other methods of assessing white matter architecture, including the pos...
متن کاملIn Vivo Study of Cerebral White Matter in the Dog Using Diffusion Tensor Tractography
Conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) allows investigators and clinicians to observe the anatomy and injuries of the cerebral white matter (CWM) in dogs. However, dynamic images based on the diffusion tensor (DT) technique are required to assess fiber tract integrity of the CWM. Diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) produces a three-dimensional representation in which data are displayed o...
