Unified voxel- and tensor-based morphometry (UVTBM) using registration confidence.
Voxel-based morphometry (VBM) and tensor-based morphometry (TBM) both rely on spatial normalization to a template and yet have different requirements for the level of registration accuracy. VBM requires only global alignment of brain structures, with limited degrees of freedom in transformation, whereas TBM performs best when the registration is highly deformable and can achieve higher registra...
متن کاملStructural MRI in Frontotemporal Dementia: Comparisons between Hippocampal Volumetry, Tensor-Based Morphometry and Voxel-Based Morphometry
BACKGROUND MRI is an important clinical tool for diagnosing dementia-like diseases such as Frontemporal Dementia (FTD). However there is a need to develop more accurate and standardized MRI analysis methods. OBJECTIVE To compare FTD with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) with three automatic MRI analysis methods - Hippocampal Volumetry (HV), Tensor-based Morphometry...
متن کاملWithin-group nonlinear registration improves between-group Voxel-Based Morphometry
Accurate registration is imperative for VBM methodologies. Typically, linear and/or nonlinear registration is used to conform all brains to the same shape, orientation and size. We suggest disease-specific reference targets to reduce normal inter-subject anatomical variability while at the same time enhance pathologically-induced differences between groups. These targets can be created by avera...
متن کاملVoxel-Based Morphometry
The human brain is in a state of constant change and adaptation. This may be driven either by normal developmental or aging processes or by the effects of learning, training, and new occurrences in daily life. In addition to these aforementioned changes, more systematic influences such as gender, disease, and genes affect the brain’s structure. Using magnetic resonance imaging, brain changes an...
متن کاملVoxel-based morphometry 1113 elements
An underlying assumption of the above parametric approach is that the process is a = Gaussian field, i.e., its statistical characteristics, including its roughness parameter (or its reciprocal, the smoothness ) ), are the same at each point in the image. The FWHM of the process should be constant in all directions and across all voxels in the image. While these assumptions are reasonable for fu...
