<h3>Progress</h3>
Software for the fiber tracking and statistical analysis along the tracts has been implemented. The statistical methods for diffusion tensors are implemented as ITK code as part of the [[NA-MIC/Projects/Diffusion_Image_Analysis/DTI_Software_and_Algorithm_Infrastructure|DTI Software Infrastructure]] project. The methods have been validated on a repeated scan of a healthy individual. This work has been published as a conference paper (MICCAI 2005) and a journal version (MEDIA 2006). Our recent IPMI 2007 paper includes a nonparametric regression method for analyzing data along a fiber tract.

Objective

Demonstrate how we integrate BrainLab, BioImage Suite and Slicer3 to perform fiducial seeding of DTI tractography in Slicer3. The demo will be happening in BWH OR.

Approach, Plan

Slicer3, BioImage Suite and BrainLab will be connected through a router in BWH OR. BioImage Suite will be a "bridge" between Slicer3 and BrainLab for data communication.

Progress

The integrated system has been used in BWH OR for 6 neurosurgical cases.
