Key Investigators

  • Utah: Anuja Sharma, Bo Wang, Guido Gerig
  • UCLA: Andrei Irimia, Micah Chambers, Jack Van Horn


Objective

  • Utilize the lesion segmentation framework previously developed by Wang et al. for an improved modeling of longitudinal changes in white matter properties of tracts for a TBI subject.

Approach, Plan

  • Co-register patient-specific structural and DTI data, together with lesion segmentations. Registration is performed using Slicer in a longitudinal fashion to establish correspondence between the acute and chronic scans from a patient across multiple modalities.
  • Utilize information from the lesion segmentations to guide the tractography.
  • Assess white matter changes longitudinally in tracts close to the lesions sites.
