Current Projects

  • Shape Analysis of Caudate and Corpus Callosum Data
  • ITK SNAP: A level Set Semi Automatic Segmentation tool and its use at UNC for the segmentation of brain structures
  • UNC Tools for the Statistical Analysis of Anisotropy of Diffusion Tensor Measures along White Matter Fibers
  • Participants
    • UNC: Isabelle Corouge, Martin Styner.
    • PNL: Sylvain Bouix, Marek Kubicki, James Levitt, Marc Niethammer.

Progress

  • 11/2005, Shape analysis of PNL caudates with UNC software
  • 10/2005, UNC visit the PNL
    • Meeting to establish the needs of the different parties and come up with a schedule.
    • Presentation of progress: ProgressReport
  • 7/2005. Programming Week in Boston
    • Martin Styner and Sylvain Bouix met to discuss possible collaborations. A project on the shape analysis of the caudate nucleus seemed to be a reasonable starting point.
