<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.

Key Investigators

  • MRN: Jeremy Bockholt, Mark Scully
  • BWN: Steve Pieper

Objective

To implement a high level wizard that performs all necessary pre-processing steps and then segments lesion images.

Approach, Plan

1. Verify that all required sub-modules are production ready.

2. Diagram all possible branches with requirements.

3. Use QT to create the UI and tie all relevant modules together.


Progress

Prior to the meeting:

1. Identified a number of modules to incorporate assuming they are production ready (SkullStripping, BiasCorrection, ProbabilisticBiasCorrection, RegisterImages, BrainsConstellation, etc).

2. Implemented a number of other modules that were needed but didn't yet exist (JointIntensityStandardization, LupusLesionSegmenter)


At the meeting:

1. Met with individuals responsible for relevant modules and identified potential issues.

2. Met with Steve Pieper on using QT for the wizard

3. Worked with Hans to adapt his BRAINSABC tool to work on our data. This accomplishes most of our preprocessing needs.

4. Started implementing the wizard in QT.
