Diffeomorphic Shape Trajectories for Improved Longitudinal Segmentation and Statistics

Longitudinal image data has several sources of variability. First, there is inherent biological variability, both within a subject changing over time and also between subjects in a population. The goal of longitudinal analysis is to quantify this variability and make inferences about changes over time in a population. However, longitudinal imaging data also include unwanted sources of variability, such as noise in image acquisition, segmentation and registration errors, and human expert judgment, among others. These extraneous errors tend to dampen statistical power, especially when trying to distinguish between trajectories of two different populations, e.g., healthy and diseased.

Fig. 3. Left: For one subject, volume of observed caudates (open circles) and temporally consistent continuous volume extracted from diffeomorphic shape model (solid line). The difference in caudate volume extracted from scans obtained on the same day highlights the need for consistent segmentation. Right: Observed volume and volume extracted from diffeomorphic shape models for all 65 subjects. While the volume of the discrete shape observations show considerable variation, volume extracted from personalized models are continuous and temporally consistent.
Fig. 2. Longitudinal mixed-effects analysis of striatal volumes obtained from observed shapes (Left) and temporally consistent shapes (Right). Volume data are shown as filled black circles with corresponding individual trends. Note the improvement of the model fit in the consistent striatal volume over the observed striatal volume, which results in lower standard error of estimated fixed-effects parameters.
Fig. 3. Left: Fixed-effects parameters for observed caudate shapes (Far Left-Control, Mid Left- HD), Right: Fixed-effects parameters for temporally consistent caudate shapes (Mid Right-Control, Far Right-HD); Fixed effects slope: Blue-Red indicates Local Contraction - Expansion.
