Overview of Utah 2 Algorithms (PI: Guido Gerig)
The Utah II group, guided by Guido Gerig and Marcel Prastawa, is interested in providing new methodology for analysis of DTI (including group analysis, fiber tract parametrization and quantification, longitudinal analysis), of image data including pathology (lesions (MS, lupus), tumor, trauma etc.), and methodology for registration and segmentation of serial/longitudinal image data. Methodology development will focus on subject-specific analysis in personalized medicine applications, and on providing normative data in the form of spatial altlases and descriptive information on geometric and appearance change in the presence of pathology.
