Objective
We would like to create end-to-end applications within Slicer3 allowing individual and group analysis of regional (voxel-based) and local (mesh-based) cortical thickness.
Such a workflow applied to the young brain (2-4 years old) is our goal in order to start a longitudinal study of early brain development in autism (UNC DBP).
See our Roadmap for more details.
Approach, Plan
Our approach is described in the following wiki pages:
Our plan for the project week is to:
- Improve ARCTIC's integration within Slicer3
- ARCTIC's availability using Slicer3's extension manager interface
- Cortical thickness overlaid on VTK surface (quality control using Slicer3 MRML scene)
- Future directions:
- Batch-processing within Slicer3 to perform group analysis
- Use of XNAT to directly download atlases needed for processing.
- Continue on the mesh-based cortical thickness pipeline.
- Particle correspondence individual testing
- Automated processing of small pediatric dataset
We are also interested in learning about batch-processing within Slicer3, XNAT integration for future improvment.
