Project Description

This is one of a series of projects on a large clinical dataset of stroke patients, including T2-FLAIR and DWI imaging. We recently (MICCAI 2014) developed a leukoaraiosis (small vessel disease) probabilistic co-variation model, which we use to differentiate between small vessel disease and acute or chronic stroke on T2-FLAIR.

Objective

  • Here, we wish to investigate the parameters of the model as potential phenotypes against for clinical and genetic analyses.

Approach, Plan

  • We will create the phenotype projections for ~80 stroke patients and experiment with correlating the genetic and clinical factors.
