The data are supposed to be reprocessed automatically and you need to reload the correct data based on the information in the email. I believe the error started on 12/28. If you receive emails, please disregard the data you received previously and download the new one. This affects those who used the cascading (multiple) alpha method. If you used the 3-alpha approach, you receive Kimap001, Kimap002, Kimap003, and Kimap. The final "Kimap" is supposed to be the combination of the all other 3 Kimaps, but this combination routine was not working. You can still obtain the correct overall Kimap by manually combining the previous three Kimap (001,002,003), but soon you should receive the correct combined Kimap. Sorry for this error and we hope that it didn't cost you much time.

I recently received a patient for processing whos files came in Siemens Mosaic. After having ran through such protocols as DCM2NII.gui, I had a 30 direction set of files that, when run through Diffusion Toolkit/Trackvis, yielded me a 6x6 matrix view of the transaxial cuts of the brain. I ran this through DTI studios because of its actual Siemens Mosaic protocol and was able to (with the right gradient table) create a semi-usable FA map. The problem is that while DTI studios gave me a representation of the brain, the coronal and sagittal views are upside-down and inverted. I'd like to know if anybody had thoughts on reorienting those views of the brain. I had tried going through Vinci 2.54.0 to use Magic Tool (for those not acquainted, Magic Tool allows you to tilt and rotate images how you please in order for them to fit your needs), however if I try to rotate the sagittal cut, the rest of the cuts are affected such that the transaxial cut will be flipped - they are, as expected, linked. If anyone could provide any insight on either using DTI studios to correctly convert the Siemens Mosaic files into usable directions for tractography purposes (either in DTI studios or Diffusion Toolkit/Trackvis), I'd greatly appreciate it.

Therefore I have three questions, only one of which needs to be answered for me to obtain my desired nhdr format tensor file. 1) How do I load the tensor.dat file to be saved as a nhdr (if this is possible) in DTI-Studio, or how do I use other data I have here with DTI-Studio to create a nhdr tensor file that excludes the slices which were found to be bad? 2) How do I read the tensor.dat file? If I understand the data format I can convert it to nrrd tensor file format 3) Where is this data quality flag information stored, and how do I read it? I could use the nhdr I have already and remove the offending bad slices, then estimate tensors without these slices, producing a nrrd format tensor file.

This was not observable in the normal white matter. Because I don't believe, that the contrast agent would in any way influence water diffusion, my theory is, that the addition of a paramagnetic contrast agent could cause more local noise and the small attenuation in the (lambda3) direction would be even less discernible, in contrast to the strong attenuation in the (lambda1) direction. My question is, to your knowledge, would there be anything else in the processing of the DTI datasets that could cause the above described effect?

For NMR/MRI of living organs, we are dealing with a system with a huge number of compartments. Waters inside cytoplasm, nucleus, golgi, mito, extracelluar space, bound to macromolecules, inside an axonal process, trapped between neurofilaments/microtubles, inside myeline, etc. These microscopic environment varies within a scale of micrometer scale or less. Then, there are larger scale structure units such as neurons, astrocytes, then even larger such as WM and GM, from small (tens of microns) to large (millimeter). These structural units with different scales coexist within one pixel. In this complicated multi-compartment systems, water molecules move around about 10 micron, in average, experiencing different environments, some place could be isotropic and some could be anisotropic. If we can assume that during the 40-60ms of observation time (typical separation between two gradient pulses, in which water moved 10micron), all water molecules experience all compartments and effectively averaged out the existence of different diffusion environments, we can assume that the system is homogeneous (fast-exchange regime). Usually, we can's assume it; many water molecules are trapped in one compartment or visiting only several compartments. Then our pixels consist of multiple compartments with different diffusion environment. Now, it is not only diffusion properties that are different among these compartment. Their relaxation properties are also very different. Suppose one simple and extreme case in which we have only two compartments and there is no exchange between them (like intra and extra-cellular spaces with very slow membrane exchange). Also assume that intra cellular component is dominant (90%) with high anisotropy and short T2 and extra cellular component is minority (10%) with low anisotropy and long T2 (I just made up all these numbers). If we use a short echo sequence, the signal from the intracelluar compartment dominate the signal and the system looks very anisotropy. If we use a long echo sequence, the signal from the extracellular space becomes dominant and the same pixel now looks less anisotropic. So, as long as we are dealing with multiple compartment systems with slow exchange regime, changing relaxation time (like altering T1 and T2) and sequence (like long echo or rapid repetition), you can effectively change the final contribution of of each compartment to the signal. Therefore, it is likely that T1, T2, AND "measured" diffusion properties change by adding Gd, even if Gd doesn't directly change water diffusion.

For example, if your gradient table consists of 6 orientations and your data have 12 diffusion-weighted images, DtiStudio can't calculate a tensor. If you are using the regular Siemens table, it should be a 12-orientation scheme. After you load the image, find how many b0 and diffusion-weighted images are loaded. Then confirm if it matches to the number of orientations of the table you used. The video tutorial in www.mristudo.org may help.

First, they tend to move (more than 1 pixel). Second, human scanners have larger eddy current, which shifts and deforms the images. To remove these registration errors, we use the co-registration tools. I believe it is not necessary for animal studies because they are sedated and heads are fixed. After the co-registration process, we inevitably apply pixel interpolation, which reduces resolution and enhances SNR. So, that could be one of the reasons why the images look different. I guess if you skip the registration, the images look much similar. Just one note; we have DiffeoMap and RoiEditor you can download from www.mristudio.org, which allows you to do cross-contrast and cross-animal registration.

We have two non-overlapping ROIs: for the first ROI we select the "or" button (under "ROI-Operation"); and for the second ROI, we select the "and" button.? (Btw, after the second ROI is drawn, it disappears from the 2D view on which it is drawn).? So this method shows the fibers that go through both ROIs.? However, we're not able to save these two ROIs, and view them later.? At best, we could save the first ROI, immediately after drawing it.? If we use the "save" button (under "ROI-Operation") after drawing the second ROI, and try to load up the ROI file in DTI Studio or ROI editor, we either see only the first ROI, or get the error message "There is no ROI data.", depending on the file format...

Why? because it is designed for "Fiber Selection", not ROI-Displaying ;) ------- in some cases, it would be helpful if individual ROIs are shown with selected fibers. thank you all for this valuable comments. we will consider this in the updated version. regards, hangyi ________________________________________ From: mristudio-users-bounces at mristudio.org [mristudio-users-bounces at mristudio.org] On Behalf Of Petya R [petya_dti at yahoo.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 09, 2011 1:30 PM To: mristudio-users at mristudio.org Subject: [Mristudio-users] Saving of ROIs in DTI studio Hello, We are trying to save ROIs that we generate in DTI Studio (through the "Fiber" tab), and later be able to view the ROIs.

In-Reply-To: <87D3B497-D79E-4EF4-A452-B4E4F9784268@stanford.edu> References: <87D3B497-D79E-4EF4-A452-B4E4F9784268@stanford.edu> Message-ID: Hi Naama, This is a good question and please allow me to share my though with people in the MriStudio mailing list. When we describe white matter, there are two ways. Let me use the analogy of geological maps. If I see a map of Baltimore, there are essentially two types of information; boundaries that define boarders of locations like city, county, and state. The other is road information like route 95 that travels from Washingon DC to NY. The former defines locations and the latter doesn't belong to any single location. Likewise, WM map has two ways to define. Many WM names define locations, like the internal capsule, which is a WM location between the basal ganglia. There are many "roads" that penetrate the internal capsule like cortico-thalamic, thalamo-cortical, cortico-spinal, cortico-pontine, to name few, but they are all intermingled and it's not possible to completely decipher them, at least by DTI/MRI. There are also names of WM that imply something similar to the road names. For example, the corticospinal tract and IFO defines two destinations. Our atlas obviously defines locations; all segments are defined by boarders. Some of the defined locations have names that implies roads (e.g. IFO, SFO, CST, ets), but they actually define locations. This is one source of confusion. Now, there are some more confusing things. I believe many macroscopic anatomical nomenclature is based on classic histology observations. The SFO and IFO are assigned to large white matter bundles that sweep from front to back, which look like connecting the frontal and occipital lobes, but I don't think it was confirmed that there are actually axons connecting the frontal and occipital lobes. Therefore, the foundation of the assigned names are not as sound as the corticospinal tracts, which are confirmed in many animals and human. Now, we assigned some locations of the brain "SFO" and "IFO". There is not doubt that there are large axonal bundles travelling front to back (or back to front) in the designated locations. However, if one asks, "do you know if these locations really contain axons connecting the frontal and occipital lobes?", well, I must say, "not sure". To me, it seems like an issue of nomenclature. In any case, assignments of "road-type" names to the WM is a tricky effort because even for the "corticospinal tract", the designated locations may contain many other axons like cortico-pontine and cortico-bulbar axons. As long as they are mixed in a microscopic level, we can only say, "this region has high concentration of the corticospinal tract" and, to be strict, we can always argue that it is not correct to give a binary definition to a place like, "this is the corticospinal tract", because the "real" corticospinal tract refers to axons that connect the cortex and the spinal cord, not to many millimeters of anatomical locations visualized by MRI/DTI. So, going back to your original question, there were controversy over the existence of SFO and now IFO . In these cases what is discussed is "is there really a large concentration of axons that connect the frontal and occipital lobes in the WM locations called SFO/IFO?" How does it affect our study? Well, for the IFO, maybe we should change the name of the location to "a large WM bundle running front-back (green color) at the junction of the frontal lobe and the temporal lobe". To me, the source of the problem is the adoption of road names to refer to locations. As long as we use our atlas to define locations and do quantitative measurements such as volumes and FAs, how we call each location is not really a critical issue. Of course, it could profoundly affect the interpretation. If the FA of "IFO" is low, we should not immediately conclude connectivity problems between the frontal and occipital lobes, simply based on the name of the location. In this sense, you raised an important issue. On the other hand, IFO/SFO have been widely used to refer some specific locations and we can communicate about anatomical locations through these terms. So, even if they are mis-nomenclature, we may need to keep using them unless the anatomist society comes up with a new set of anatomical languages to refer these anatomical locations.

What is the exact interpretation of these lines? >Please can you suugest some idas or references about these questions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It's an important and fundamental question and please allow me to share my though with other users in the mailing list. What I'm going to describe below is mostly my opinion and I'll try to make clear which is fact and which is my opinion. First of all, when we talk about tracts and fibers and bundles and connections, we are talking about axons. There are 100 billion neurons in the brain and each neuron has one axon to communicate with other regions of the brain. The axon branches at its terminal but also along the trajectory. Combined with the dendrite network, the notion of fibers and connections could be very complicated; even if we can reconstruct a complete picture of one neuron, its anatomy and connection are far from simple one-to-one communication. If one neuron communicate with 10 neurons in average, it is a question of the size of 100 billion x 10 (or maybe 100 billion^10?). Apparently, this is way beyond our ability for complete delineation of the system. Therefore, we need to resort to some kind of methods to reduce the dimension of the information. During this process, it is inevitable that much information is degenerated. For example, if we obtain 10GB worth of anatomical information from one brain, we still loose an astronomical amount of information. So in general, when we talk about axonal anatomy and connectivity, we need to accept whatever the technique we use gives only approximation with HUGELY degenerated information. The above argument started from a microscopic cellular level point of view. When we do MRI, we usually approach from the other end of the spectrum. We observe properties of water molecules (which is a very indirect indicator of any cellular entity) with 1-3 mm spatial resolution, acquired within 10 min, and has merely 10 MB of data. We can understand that a huge amount of anatomical information is already lost at the point of data acquisition, which is impossible to recover using any sophisticated mathematical tools. We can say any biological statement from this kind of measurements can only be an approximation. On the other hand, we can also argue that it is an excellent method to systematically, consistently, and quantitatively reduce the unmanageably large system to 10 MB within 10 min so that we can investigate and compare the status of the anatomy, which can't be done by any microscopic (histological) methods. There is a very common issue that arises in this kind of situations; between the microscopic cellular studies and macroscopic imaging methods, there is a gap so large that we often (well, I would say usually) can't connect these two sides of information; e.g. if we find one line generated by a deterministic tracking, we don't know what it exactly means in terms of a cellular level entity. In my opinion, there are two types of approaches we usually take to deal with this "information gap". First, we often use EMPIRICAL RELATIONSHIP. I believe many radiological diagnosis is based on this. Certain appearance in brain MRI suggests brain tumor even if it doesn't necessary tell where exactly is the tumor. Decrease in diffusion constant suggest stroke infarction. These are the examples of useful empirical relationship we use every day. Second is GROUP DIFFERENCE. T1-weighted images of AD patients may suggest cortical thinning. This could be real thinning or maybe due to contrast change. Even if we don't know the real cellular event, if MRI can reproducibly detect differences, it is very useful information. As for fiber tracking, one may find that a particular tract in a disease group is smaller. This could be due to FA decrease or size reduction of the tract. We can't immediately tell what is really happening, but the fact the DTI/tractography can detect such changes non-invasive and reproducibly may prove very useful. Now let's go back to the question of "what does the line mean". There are also related questions like, "is the line really true (validation)" or "does it really represent connection". Before answering this question, we first have to define what is exactly the anatomical entity we are going after. Without defining the target, we can't do validation studies. First of all, it is obvious that we are not talking about a single axon which is only few micron in diameter. Nobody would argue that DTI-based tractography represents a single axon and I'm sure nobody wants to study 100 billion axons either. Then what is exactly we want to study? Suppose we have a dream imaging method that can give complete pictures of whatever we want to image. Then what is the exact anatomical entity we want to study? Well, as long as we are talking about the white matter, it must be "a bundle of axons". One may argue, "we know that the corticospinal tract does exist and this is what we want to know". There are many bundles of axons that were described for many years such as SLF, cingulum, thalamic radiation, etc. These structures have been described using histology samples and visual inspection of the macroscopic configuration of the white matter. Those named fibers are mostly "anatomical features", with loose definitions about the boarders; many axons may merge and exit along the tract. Because they are merely features without clear definition, it becomes a very difficult to task to use them as the target of the study; if the anatomical target is vague, how can we validate our DTI-tractography results against it? For example, the CST is one of the most well-characterized tracts. We know that it exists and also know the location quite well. However, there are so many other fibers running parallel to it that it is very difficult to define it in the cerebral hemisphere. At the pons level, it has much more compacted shape with much less contaminating axons, although there still contain a lot of corticopontine and corticobulbar axons. Even at the pons level, histology reveals that the CST axons are interdigitated with a significant number of pontine crossing fibers and the CST axons are distributed from the high concentration at the center to gradual reduction of the concentration toward the edge. So, even if we have histology, it is very difficult to define boundary and the clear entity of the CST. So, if we can obtain line (or lines) seemingly representing the CST, it is hard to tell the validity or what it exactly represents. So, in summary, the problem we are facing is, the DTI-tractography only gives macroscopic and indirect (water property) measure of white matter features, while the anatomy we are interested in is also vaguely defined. Therefore any efforts that try to attach true (whatever the "true" means) anatomical meaning to DTI results often hit a big wall. There are other similar situations when we ask, "what is the meaning of decreased FA" and "can we study brain connectivity"; in both cases, the measurements and targets are not well defined. In this kind of situation, in my opinion, I feel that we have to resort to "empirical relationship" and "group differences" to extract some PRACTICAL conclusions. This may be enough if one wants to contribute to clinical diagnosis. If one is interested in neuroscience (or ground truth), DTI/MRI may give a good indication about what could be wrong in which area so that we can direct subsequent analyses using, for example, histology or other modalities. Another common and specific question about tractography is, "then how we can believe tractography results when we do tumor surgery". If we have to take "real or not" approach, it should be not too difficult to come up with many cases showing how tractography fails, and thus dismiss tractography. In this kind of questions, I think it's very important to define practical goals rather than asking a simple deterministic question like "is it real or not". For example, the usefulness or accuracy of tractography can be judged differently depending on whether we are asking 5 mm accuracy or merely asking "is the CST left or right side of the tumor". This is a good example that our answer requires clear statement about the end goal. Without defining the goal and a required accuracy level, it is sometimes sterile to discuss about the validity of tools. In this case, we are actually asking "does the availability of tractography results on the CST improve the outcome of the tumor surgery?". When we ask this kind of questions, we rarely expect improvement in 100% cases. Just like drug trials, we should talk about statistically significant improvement and evaluate cost/benefit functions including the rate of adverse impacts. In this situation, I think a simple question like "does tractography give real CST" is a too naive question. I guess I'm not giving you a straight answer, but hope this would give you a good background about DTI/Tractography research.

In-Reply-To: References: <87D3B497-D79E-4EF4-A452-B4E4F9784268@stanford.edu> Message-ID: "Atlantis" is a good one. Just want to add a couple of things. First of all, pixel-by-pixel evaluation of DTI, like define ROIs on FA maps or inspect color maps, and tractography results are very different things. As for the pixel-by-pixel evaluation, there are a cluster of pixels currently named as IFO in our atlas. So, it is a real entity (not Atlantis). Then the issue here is whether it is appropriate to call this location IFO. This is an issue of nomenclature as well as interpretation. As for the tractography, the reconstructed trajectory convincingly shows that so-called "IFO" travels between the frontal and occipital lobes, just like past histology sections have shown. However, it is a very valid argument that there is actually not axons that travel the entire length of the "IFO". In this case, the connection called IFO is "Atlantis". It seems there, reported numerous times, but actually doesn't exist. s On Wed, Feb 23, 2011 at 2:30 AM, Naama Barnea-Goraly wrote: > > Dear Susumu, > > Thank for the informative response.

For example the caudate in T1 has a good contrast. You can use 3D or slice-by-slice region growing tool to define it much easier than manual. When you are using DTI colormap, there is a color region growing tool to specify a region with the same color. If does not have clear contrast, you can first use the global threshold or region growing to define a tissue of interest. For example, if you are interested in a white matter structure, you can use FA>0.25. If you are interested in the cortex, you can use a threshold tool with T1. Please note that white matter structures and the cortex do not have clear contrast boundary from adjacent structures. Therefore the region growing or thresholding almost always leak to adjacent structures. After you do the global tissue segmentation, you can visit each slice and use manual ROI + AND operation to define the structure. If you get tired of defining a lot of ROIs without clear boundaries, please try our automated full-brain segmentation tools. You need to learn how to use DiffeoMap and RoiEditor.

This is the best way if the two images share the same center of FOV and image orientation (co-registered already) If the two images are not coregistered, the easiest way is, to go straight into a linear registration, which can take images with different dimensions and spits out co-registered images in the same image parameters as the template image. s On Sun, Feb 27, 2011 at 12:22 AM, [Seongjin] wrote: > I know DTI studio supports only intra-subject/intra-DTI registration. > I tried to use Diffeomap, but it complained about images are not of the > same image parameters. > If you have a complete guide about how to coregistration of DTI (e.g. > 256x256) to High-resolution anatomy (e.g. 512x512), could you share it with > me and whole community? > > I appreciate that in advance. > > SC > > _______________________________________________ > mristudio-users mailing list > mristudio-users at mristudio.org > http://lists.mristudio.org/mailman/listinfo/ > Unsubscribe, send a blank email to: > mristudio-users-unsubscribe at mristudio.org > > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

What i have done but didn't continue to use it, was to reduce the size of the anatomical image to the size of the DT image using diffeomap. Later did AIR in DTIstudio using the anatomy as a reference to the Mosaic DTI images i had, which were cut in the same size as my anatomy. After this coregistration there was a nice mixed image of anatomy with the DTI. So then i saved this as separate analize file and proceeded to the DTI analysis as usual. When it came time to draw my ROIs, I would open the coregistered anatomy with DTI analize file, which know was exactly the same position and size, and then i would have nice clear ROIs. The ROIs i would draw either with ROI editor or DTIstudio. I didn't continue to do this, because it is obviously tedious method. So i proceeded to do all the DTI analysis in DTi studio, export the files as Analize, and then coregister my anatomy images with another program. It was hard for me to work with ROI editor because the resolution of my DTI is relatively bad. So i had to use a different program. Any way i hope this helps, cheers Salvador C ________________________________ Von: mristudio-users-bounces at mristudio.org [mailto:mristudio-users-bounces at mristudio.org] Im Auftrag von [Seongjin] Gesendet: Sonntag, 27.

I believe that MD should be about 0.9-1.0. So your reported value is a bit high. Please make sure that you used correct b-values. For example, if you used b=1,000 for data acquisition and used b=800 for processing, MD becomes higher. Also, smaller b-value tends to give higher MD. Many labs use b=1,000. If you are using b=700, then your MD becomes a bit higher even if you used the correct b-value for processing. This is because diffusion signal decay is not mono-exponential and decays faster in low b-value range than high b-value range. > > ?? Why happen like this?

It is always advisable to use multiple ROIs to obtain cleaner results. For example, if you are interested in the fornix, one ROI could define the column of the fornix and the other defining its projection along the hippocampus. Then you can ask tractography to retrieve trajectories that penetrate the two ROIs.

For DTI I use the following parameters: no of directions = 30, b values = 3 (0, 250, 855 s/mm2) (in addition to 5 A0 images), no. of slices = 7, slice thickness= 2 mm with no interslice gap. I recently started using DTI studio to carry out fibre tracking. I have few queries related to fibre tracking for which i need clarification: I am able to open my bruker raw data as philips 2dseq, and i had modified the gradient table such that it consists of 95 directions ((30 dir x 3 b-values) + 5 A0 images). So i get a total of 95 images on which i carry out tensor calculation and fiber tracking. However when i draw ROI after clicking fibre tracking, it gives more of a colour coding within the ROI instead of fibre tracts. I tried opening the file in 3DMRI. In 3DMRI, the fibres are single coloured and the colours need to be changed manually. Also, i do not get the brain anatomical structure on which the fibres are visualized. Rather i get a rectangular plane containing the fibres when i change the threshold value. In addition, i am unable to use the ROIeditor as i assume it does not contain any atlas for rat brain. Also i am unable to use the Diifeomap.exe (for 32 bit OS) that i downloaded from your website as it gives error message that the file is corrupt (I use a 32-bit system). So here are my questions: 1. Is there any atlas available for rat brain that can be used in ROI editor and 3DMRI 2. How can i use the diffeomap? 3. How can we see the entire colour coded fibre tracts of rat brain (in the RGB format indicating the Superior-inferior, right-left, up-down directions) in 3DMRI/DTI studio 4. In fibre tracking, after increasing the tract-turning angle (say 70 deg) will the number of fibres (or colur codes) not decrease when compared with lower angle (say 40 deg). But we observe more colour codes when the tract-turning angle is increased. Can you kindly explain the reason for this? Consequently, are the statistical details of fibres within an ROI in DTI STUDIO correct and can they be reported?

Message-ID: Hi, I am new to the field of DTI. I am trying to use probability atlas for some data analysis. I downloaded the JHU atlas from the FSL website. There are 2 JHU White matter atlases. 1)JHU ICBM-DTI-81 White-Matter Labels 2) JHU White-Matter Tractography Atlas From what I understand JHU White-Matter Tractography Atlas, is a probability atlas. So, for every voxel in each tract (20 tracts) specified there should be a 0 to 1 probability value. This probability will determine the probability of that voxel belonging to that particular tract. But, where could I find the probability values? When I use DTIStudio to open the atlas, all I could see as the intensity are the indexes that are given for each tract. - Please let me know if I am using the wrong atlas? (or) How I could find the probability values of the tracts? - What is the difference between these files JHU-ICBM-tracts-maxprob-thr50-2mm.nii.gz and JHU-ICBM-tracts-maxprob-thr25-2mm.nii.gz Thanks in advance. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

So, I'm not sure if you encounter a situation where you deal with a ROI in one slice, although maybe this is not relevant to your question. Suppose your original image is 3mm and you resample it to 1mm. Then if you draw one 2D ROI, you have a choice of 3 slices within the native 3mm slice. The center slice could be identical to the original image but the edge two slices may be interpolated if you used trilinear interpolation option. If you use the nearest neighbor, you simply get 3 1mm copies of the original 3mm slice. I believe your question can be generalized as "what is the effect of interpolation". Interpolation is a difficult issue. If you have an FA map and interpolate it, you get a different result from interpolating a tensor map and re-calculate a FA map from the interpolated tensor map. There are also multiple options for interpolation. I would recommend you to stick with one method and I don't think that we can conclude one is better than the other. You can also bring the pre-segmented atlas map all the way to your original image space. In this way, you can at least forget about the interpolation issue.

Please let me give some more details. Our current workflow is as follows: DTI Studio: to create FA, ADC, etc. maps. DiffeoMap: AIR registration of FA, ADC, etc., to JHU templates (which resamples), then LDDMM registration to JHU templates. Apply Kimap. ROIEditor: Extract FA, ADC, etc on the subject image (now in template space) using the Type II WMPM atlas. One of the ROIs we found significiant was the Nigra. Our original image slice was 4.6mm thick with a .4mm gap. The Nigra from the Type II WMPM is only 6mm thick. After reading your comments, I would generalize my question as: is there a minimum ROI threshold size that I should be using, relative to the size of my acquisition voxels? If we can throw some of the smaller ROIs out, it would also help with multiple comparisons. If it was your paper, would you include the Nigra, considering the original slice dimensions? Perhaps this is one area where manual ROI placement would be superior to autamated placement.

Also, the small size (with respect to pixel size) of the structure would lead to partial volume effect in raw data (thus poor reproducibility) and, again, computer algorithm cannot get the reliable information even after upsampling or normalization. So, everything is in your raw image. I guess we all agree on it. To answer your question, maybe a good approach is to use Hmap and warp the WMPM to your raw image without interpolation. In this way, you may get better idea about what the automated method is doing more intuitively. Suppose a ROI is only 10 pixel large in the 1mm WMPM which is warp to a raw image with 10 times lower resolution. Then, you will find a ROI with only 1 pixel. This should give you some idea to judge if the operation is reliable or not. The best way is to scan the same person multiple times and measure the SN to find the reliability range.

First do tractography in image 1 and 2 independently. Save the results as a 3D 1/0 mask in DtiStudio. Then run a rigid transformation between the image 1 and 2. You can do FA vs FA but b0 vs b0 could be easier because FA maps could have some random intense pixels outside the brain that may interfere with the rigid alignment. Save the transformation matrix and apply it to your 1/0 binary fiber mask image. Then you can superimpose the aligned #1 and original #2 see the reproducibility. You can do all these very easily by DiffeoMap.

I find your suggestion very helpful! However, with that method I don't see how to separate the reproducibility of the tract from the rater reliability. If the tract in time 1 is different from that in time 2, we don't really know to what extent it is caused by small errors in the ROI placement, or by problems of reproducibility... Another possibility would be to do tractography in time 1 twice, and once in time 2, so that we can look at the time1-time2 reproducibility relative to the time1-time1 reliability. Also, can ROIs be transformed with Diffeomap as well (just like I suggested in my previous email)? That would help ensure that differences are due to reproducibility only.

Yes, for intra/inter-operator reproducibility, you have to pick one data (e.g. Time 1) and perform ROI drawing multiple times by the same and different operators. For inter-measurement reproducibility, you have to have Time 1 and Time 2 data. In this case, if you draw ROI independently on Time 1 and 2, you have both inter-measurement and intra-operator reproducibility mixed. > > Also, can ROIs be transformed with Diffeomap as well (just like I > suggested in my previous email)? That would help ensure that > differences are due to reproducibility only. > To remove the intra-operator factor from the inter-measurement reproducibility, you can transform the ROI used for Time 1 to Time 2. In this case, I suggest you to save the ROIs as the "Binary Map" format. For example, suppose you drew 3 ROIs for tractography on Time 1. If you save the ROIs as the Binary Map, you'll get 4 files. Three files are 1/0 binary mask files for 3 ROIs. The final one is a header file in a text format. You can read and study the header. There is an explanation section at the bottom of the header file. Then you can apply the transformation matrix to the 3 ROI files in DiffeoMap. As mentioned in the earlier email, you can use, for example, b0 (Time1) to b0 (Time2) linear transformation and save the transformation matrix. This matrix can be applied to the 3 ROI files. Save these 3 new transformed ROI files. Then, rewrite the text header files and specify the filenames of the 3 new ROI files. You can load all necessary files (vector and FA files) for Time 2 for tractography in DtiStudio. Then, you can load the revised Binary Map, which will load the 3 new ROI files and apply the ROIs. Hope this will do. Susumu > Thanks, > Miguel > > > On Apr 1, 2011, at 12:15 AM, susumu mori wrote: > >> Hi Miguel, >> >> You can do it using Diffeomap (or FSL or SPM).

The poster is asking how to apply the Kimap outside of DiffeoMap, mainly Matlab. Can someone please explain to me the format of the Kimap and Hmap Transformations? What do you guys mean when you say Vector (x, y, z) x X-dimension x Y-dimension x Z-dimension? When I loaded up my Kimap into matlab as a binary file, the first six values after the header were: 1.0e+031 * 7.800029524490799 0.000000000022612 0.000001498922010 0.000000000000000 0.000001839432419 0.000000000000000 My image was 181 x 217 x 181. Thank you very much, Jeff Sadino The original post is below: 1. One thing I need to note is that the transformation matrix I have is a "final" combined matrix of AIR rigid, AIR affine, and LDDMM K map (so it should be in the raw data format). Can I extract the "vector" information at the specified location in this transformation matrix? And how? Hello Yi, As Susumu said, transformation matrices contain vectors at each coordinate, indicating where is the new location. The structure is Vector (x, y, z) x X-dimension x Y-dimension x Z-dimension. You may write matlab code to extract the vector information. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

However, I have come across this questino from one of my supervisors and cannot really answer it and am hoping for your help/expertise. Here is goes: Is the FA value still a viable measure to look at and use to make a correlation if you are using FA values to pull the white matter tract? It seems like if the tract is made from FA values then you should not be able to use the FA as an outcome variable. This question has come up as I presented my research idea and I'm not sure how to answer it. Most studies that use DTI use FA thresholds to pull the tracts and then also the FA values (eg. mean FA) to make comparisons between the tracts. I really hope that my question makes sense as I have found it very hard to word properly.

The notion of "morphology" is based on a cluster of pixel. There is no concept of morphology if you pick one pixel. If you define a group of pixels, then you ask morphological questions such as shapes and volumes. For pixel intensity, you can measure it for single pixel as well as a cluster of pixels. For example, you extract one axial slice at the pons where you can identify the CST clearly. When somebody ask you to measure FA, you need to define a boundary. If you define only the core of the CST, the FA goes up and the size goes down. If your definition includes the boarder of the CST, the FA goes down and the size goes up. The same image, two different results; the former method may tell you "this patient has smaller CST but FA is preserved" and the latter method tells you "this patient has lower FA but the size was preserved". So, the question is which is correct? Unfortunately, MRI/DTI can't answer the question. You are asking a question such as "what is the status of the CST", which calls for cellular-level information, while we have merely 20MB of data for the entire brain based on water diffusion property. Information is already degenerated too much to answer your specific questions about neuroanatomy. On top of it, even if we have a histology slice of the patient, it is very difficult to define the CST because many brain structures do not have a sharp boundary. The axons comprises the CST is very dense at the core but toward the edge there are many pontine crossing fibers interdigitating the CST axons. Even with histology, we can't clearly define the boarder of the CST, while any image-based quantification methods require us to define a boarder. So our effort for image-based quantification is in some sense an atrifactual effort. Then, the question is, why we do image-based quantification if it gives results that can only be remotely connected to actual cellular entities. Well, using MRI/DTI, you can systematically contract the astronomical entity to a mere 10-20MB matrix, with which you can readily quantify values and compare subjects and groups. In addition, it takes only 5 min and non-invasive. While we are enjoying all these, we really can't complain that it doesn't give us a straight answer about what is the real cellular events happening in a patient. Now, going back to the two different results from the same image, all you can do is to apply the same criteria when you define a structure. When we draw ROIs to define a boundary, we should try to be consistent. Using FA threshold is one good way to remove inter/intra-rater variability. As long as we apply consistent and reproducible quantification approach, the data are good. However, if we make mistake, that is when we interpret the data. Even if the results scream that "No size change, FA goes down!", maybe what is happening is the reduced size without FA change. Or histologically, the former would suggest myelination loss or axonal loss, but in reality it could be the reduced number of axons. So, we just have to be careful when we interpret the data. Again, in MRI/DTI, the anatomical data is astronomically degenerated. It is not always possible to conclude what is happening in cellular levels. So, to answer your question, yes, measure FA of the CST which is defined by FA threshold is a tricky approach. Because if there is FA loss, you may end up in a smaller CST with unchanged FA value simply because you extracted only high FA portion of the CST. In this case, you detected FA change by changes in size; a good example of morphology-contrast coupling. If you find a consistent differences between the control and patient groups, it's a good start. You just don't wan to immediately conclude like "therefore, the CST atrophy" or "therefore FA changed". >From purely methodological point of view, you can also warp our probabilistic CST location and measure FA values along the CST. In this way, you don't perform tractography in each subject. You transfer the population-based CST definition to each subject. In this way, you can "freeze" the morphological information and perform pure contrast detection. However, the downside is, you invite a nuisance factor, called registration accuracy. There is no perfect quantification method for image analysis. We just have to know pros&cons and it is advisable to use multiple approaches.

Here is goes: Is the FA value still a viable measure to look at and use to make a correlation if you are using FA values to pull the white matter tract? It seems like if the tract is made from FA values then you should not be able to use the FA as an outcome variable. This question has come up as I presented my research idea and I'm not sure how to answer it. Most studies that use DTI use FA thresholds to pull the tracts and then also the FA values (eg. mean FA) to make comparisons between the tracts. I really hope that my question makes sense as I have found it very hard to word properly.

Trace is defined as Dxx+Dyy+Dzz. If you divide it by 3, it becomes "Average diffusion constant (ADC)" or "Mean diffusivity (MD)". We like to use the term "trace" because it has clear mathematical definition while ADC is also used for "Apparent diffusion constant", which has a different meaning from "average diffusion constant".

Also, the gradient table may need adjustment because the Philips scanner exports the isotropically weighted image which DTI Studio does not need. It also matters if the acquisition protocol uses the 'overplus' gradients, though you can tell from the gradients in the Par file too. Hope this is helpful, Alex ____________________ M.

The notion of "morphology" is based on a cluster of pixel. There is no concept of morphology if you pick one pixel. If you define a group of pixels, then you ask morphological questions such as shapes and volumes. For pixel intensity, you can measure it for single pixel as well as a cluster of pixels. For example, you extract one axial slice at the pons where you can identify the CST clearly. When somebody ask you to measure FA, you need to define a boundary. If you define only the core of the CST, the FA goes up and the size goes down. If your definition includes the boarder of the CST, the FA goes down and the size goes up. The same image, two different results; the former method may tell you "this patient has smaller CST but FA is preserved" and the latter method tells you "this patient has lower FA but the size was preserved". So, the question is which is correct? Unfortunately, MRI/DTI can't answer the question. You are asking a question such as "what is the status of the CST", which calls for cellular-level information, while we have merely 20MB of data for the entire brain based on water diffusion property. Information is already degenerated too much to answer your specific questions about neuroanatomy. On top of it, even if we have a histology slice of the patient, it is very difficult to define the CST because many brain structures do not have a sharp boundary. The axons comprises the CST is very dense at the core but toward the edge there are many pontine crossing fibers interdigitating the CST axons. Even with histology, we can't clearly define the boarder of the CST, while any image-based quantification methods require us to define a boarder. So our effort for image-based quantification is in some sense an atrifactual effort. Then, the question is, why we do image-based quantification if it gives results that can only be remotely connected to actual cellular entities. Well, using MRI/DTI, you can systematically contract the astronomical entity to a mere 10-20MB matrix, with which you can readily quantify values and compare subjects and groups. In addition, it takes only 5 min and non-invasive. While we are enjoying all these, we really can't complain that it doesn't give us a straight answer about what is the real cellular events happening in a patient. Now, going back to the two different results from the same image, all you can do is to apply the same criteria when you define a structure. When we draw ROIs to define a boundary, we should try to be consistent. Using FA threshold is one good way to remove inter/intra-rater variability. As long as we apply consistent and reproducible quantification approach, the data are good. However, if we make mistake, that is when we interpret the data. Even if the results scream that "No size change, FA goes down!", maybe what is happening is the reduced size without FA change. Or histologically, the former would suggest myelination loss or axonal loss, but in reality it could be the reduced number of axons. So, we just have to be careful when we interpret the data. Again, in MRI/DTI, the anatomical data is astronomically degenerated. It is not always possible to conclude what is happening in cellular levels. So, to answer your question, yes, measure FA of the CST which is defined by FA threshold is a tricky approach. Because if there is FA loss, you may end up in a smaller CST with unchanged FA value simply because you extracted only high FA portion of the CST. In this case, you detected FA change by changes in size; a good example of morphology-contrast coupling. If you find a consistent differences between the control and patient groups, it's a good start. You just don't wan to immediately conclude like "therefore, the CST atrophy" or "therefore FA changed". >From purely methodological point of view, you can also warp our probabilistic CST location and measure FA values along the CST. In this way, you don't perform tractography in each subject. You transfer the population-based CST definition to each subject. In this way, you can "freeze" the morphological information and perform pure contrast detection. However, the downside is, you invite a nuisance factor, called registration accuracy. There is no perfect quantification method for image analysis. We just have to know pros&cons and it is advisable to use multiple approaches.

For example, if you did the 12-orientation Siemens DTI, you should find 13 3D volumes. 3) Then load the same data by DtiMapping. In the initial data input window, the number of gradient orientations need to match what you saw in Mri3DView. 4) In the initial data input window, there is also a section to specify if all slices need to be read. Here you need to say "all slices" susumu On Tue, Apr 19, 2011 at 5:42 PM, Kevin Spitler wrote: > Hello, > > I have several Siemens datasets with the Error that the number of > Images does not equal the product of the number of gradients and > repetitions. > > What is the recommended way to debug this problem? ?Is this a problem > with the gradient that I am using? > > My gradient is: > 0: 0.000, 0.000, 0.000 > ?1: 0.500, 0.000, 0.500 > ?2: -0.500, 0.000, 0.500 > ?3: 0.000, 0.500, 0.500 > ?4: 0.000, 0.500, -0.500 > ?5: 0.500, 0.500, 0.000 > ?6: -0.500, 0.500, 0.000 > ?7: 1.000, 0.000, 1.000 > ?8: -1.000, 0.000, 1.000 > ?9: 0.000, 1.000, 1.000 > ?10: 0.000, 1.000, -1.000 > ?11: 1.000, 1.000, 0.000 > ?12: -1.000, 1.000, 0.000 > > After I click "OK" on the error message, DTI Studio does not crash. > Typically, only a portion of the brain is displayed (e.g., the > inferior portion). > > B values used are 0,600,1200. ?I have tried the following gradient > with similar results: > ?0: 0.000, 0.000, 0.000,600 > ?1: 0.500, 0.000, 0.500,600 > ?2: -0.500, 0.000, 0.500,600 > ?3: 0.000, 0.500, 0.500,600 > ?4: 0.000, 0.500, -0.500,600 > ?5: 0.500, 0.500, 0.000,600 > ?6: -0.500, 0.500, 0.000,600 > ?7: 1.000, 0.000, 1.000,600 > ?8: -1.000, 0.000, 1.000,600 > ?9: 0.000, 1.000, 1.000,600 > ?10: 0.000, 1.000, -1.000,600 > ?11: 1.000, 1.000, 0.000,600 > ?12: -1.000, 1.000, 0.000,600 > 13: 0.500, 0.000, 0.500,1200 > 14: -0.500, 0.000, 0.500,1200 > 15: 0.000, 0.500, 0.500,1200 > 16: 0.000, 0.500, -0.500,1200 > 17: 0.500, 0.500, 0.000,1200 > 18: -0.500, 0.500, 0.000,1200 > 19: 1.000, 0.000, 1.000,1200 > 20: -1.000, 0.000, 1.000,1200 > 21: 0.000, 1.000, 1.000,1200 > 22: 0.000, 1.000, -1.000,1200 > 23: 1.000, 1.000, 0.000,1200 > 24: -1.000, 1.000, 0.000,1200 > > The error message then has the number of gradients =25, with the same > number of repetitions and images. > > Thank you for helping me use these datasets. > > Best, > Kevin > _______________________________________________ > mristudio-users mailing list > mristudio-users at mristudio.org > http://lists.mristudio.org/mailman/listinfo/ > Unsubscribe, send a blank email to: mristudio-users-unsubscribe at mristudio.org > From kevinspitler at ucla.edu Wed Apr 20 07:31:20 2011 From: kevinspitler at ucla.edu (Kevin Spitler) Date: Wed, 20 Apr 2011 04:31:20 -0700 Subject: [Mristudio-users] gradient for GE Signa HDx Message-ID: Hello, What gradient is used for DTIStudio for a GE Signa HDx?

The 32-bit version can allocate 1-1.5 GB memory to a single program no matter how much memory you have. With the 64-bit, you'd better have more than 4 GB of memory. If you are processing images with large matrices, you may need more.

This is a raw format without a header. So, you have to remember image dimensions. DtiMapping, then, can read it. You may be able to save the loaded Nifti images as a 4D Analyze too, but I'm not sure, if DtiMapping can properly read it.

The data I have are FA images and corresponding principle eigenvector images, as well as a T1-MR images. They are all raw file. I did the tractography based on these two files using DTIStudio, and then I want to visualize the fibers that passing through a certain ROI. I know this can be accomplished by manually drawing the ROI, however I have several ROI images as the mask (which have the same dimension, data format with the FA images), and these mask images are binary in which pixel inside the ROI are 1 and 0 elsewhere. When I load into a ROI image under the Fiber panel, ROI operation -> load -> binary image, it pops out a window saying 'image parameters in this file are not consistent with the current ones'. And I clicked on 'yes' to continue, but there was no fibers shown corresponding to this ROI. So is it because DTIStudio has its own definition of ROI images? Do I need to change my ROI mask ima ge format/header format then? Thanks!!

For example, DtiStudio is waiting for a binary data while you fed integer data. Or the matrix size is not right. There must be something not consistent. Also, FAQ16 at https://www.mristudio.org/wiki/faq may be helpful.

In many cases, image corruption is confined in a small area, unless the subject had bulk motion during a scan. The pixel rejection seems to work nicely for most of these cases. Please try.

Maybe choosing one b0 (T2w) in the middle of the scan is the most reasonable way, I think.

Please read the images first by Mri3DView. Check the image dimensions and the number of 3D volumes. Then make sure the number of the 3D volumes exactly match the row of your gradient table. in your case, there should be 260 3D images to load and 260 rows in the table. Another common issue is the shortage of RAM. If you are using a 32-bit operating system, it may not be able to process your large data, no matter how much RAM you have. To check it, limit the number of the slices to process in the opening data input window of DtiMapping (e.g. slice 0-4). If your calculation runs through with this limited number of slices, then it is the RAM shortage. Then the only solution is to migrate to a 64-bit operating system.

Mai 2011 20:56 An: DTI Studio, ROI Editor, DiffeoMap Questions/Support Betreff: Re: [Mristudio-users] Obtaining tract volume data If you are using DICOM, one of the common culprits is the mismatch between your gradient table and the number of of the images. Please read the images first by Mri3DView. Check the image dimensions and the number of 3D volumes. Then make sure the number of the 3D volumes exactly match the row of your gradient table. in your case, there should be 260 3D images to load and 260 rows in the table. Another common issue is the shortage of RAM. If you are using a 32-bit operating system, it may not be able to process your large data, no matter how much RAM you have. To check it, limit the number of the slices to process in the opening data input window of DtiMapping (e.g. slice 0-4). If your calculation runs through with this limited number of slices, then it is the RAM shortage. Then the only solution is to migrate to a 64-bit operating system.

I prepared my files as instructed by http://www.slicer.org/slicerWiki/index.php/Slicer3:LDDMM Is this the right instruction to follow? And when I ftp to mristudio.org using username: anonymous and my registered email as password (actually, any password works here), I was successfully logged in.

I think i'm not properly qualified to give you an answer about the tracts, so i leave it to someone else to answer that, but i would first look at the shimming you are performing on the region you are studying, and then i would guess there is going to be variability in the tracts that should average out with many samples, i think the averages should only help...

There are 20 data sets for each gradient with total 700 images. When I load them in DTI studio, all the 700 images appear as coming from 1 gradient dircetion; instead of breaking the images into 20 each for ecah gradient set, Due to this reason, I am not able to do any further DTI calculations as it gives error and crashes the program. I used the "Siemens, GE, Philips dicom" option to load the data. Can any one help me to decode this problem? Thanks in advance.

If you assume that the subject didn't move, you can use a tool to change the location, rotation, FOV, and matrix size to theoretically align the images. Otherwise, you can use a rigid transformation using AIR or MI in DiffeoMap. You can submit two images with different FOV/matrix and the resultant image will have exactly the same dimensions as the template image. If the initial location of the brain within the FOVs are too different, you may need some pre-adjustment to bring the brain positions to a similar location within the FOVs. I recommend you to do the registration of DTI data after tensor calculation. If you move raw DWIs, you need to reorient the gradient table too. Once you calculate scalar maps like FA, MD, EVs, then you can register them to T1/T2 just like a regular image. If you want to register a tensor map, you have to load it through the "Open *.d" button so that DiffeoMap knows that it has to do tensor reorientation procedure. Because b0 and T2 have very similar contrast, you can do registration between T2 and b0, save the transformation matrix and later you can apply the matrix to any DTI-derived maps like FA, MD, EV, tensor, etc. Avoid transforming vector maps. Instead, transform the tensor and then calculate vector maps. You can also do non-linear warping using LDDMM between b0 and T2 to minimize B0-susceptibility distortion.

"Then the next step, i did the AIR regeration and saved the files in the RAW (.rec) format. I am not able to view them ok in the 3D MRI view in the DTI studio; it gives me strange images." You also say "I wanted to covert it into the REC format." I am a bit confused here. I have experienced problems with opening files in DTI studio. I think it kind of has memory of previous settings and won't let to open a new file. What I do normally is uninstall DTI studio and reinstall or log off and log in. It works for me sometimes like that. Another thing is if it is just for viewing i.e. cheking your results what you can do is save them in Analyse format (I haven't used AIR registration in DTI studio so I don't know whether you have this option while saving your images) and open in 3Dview by checking Analyse format option. I am sorry I am not of much help here.

Two easy problems to fix are that your DTI data may not be in Slice-By-Slice rather than Gradient By Gradient (button, top right of DWI Parameters window) or that your gradient table may be rotated or flipped, so that the columns do not represent the right x, y, and z directions.

(You can try just sending the text as an e-mail to find out.) Your steps sound correct. It's possible that the AIR is taking out the first slice because of motions or misregistration between volumes, and this could be a problem with your last slice as well. I don't have much experience with AIR myself yet, but is there a step to apply the AIR registration to the gradient table? Your FA images certainly look 'cleaner' after the AIR process, so it definitely seems worthwhile. As far as the correctness of the gradients, are the colors in the color FA map correct (Color Map 0: red corpus callosum, green optic radiations)?

Please see the description below. I keenly look forward to your help! Thank you very much for tutoring. Detailed data processing procedure: 1. Acquisition: Siemens Trio 3.0T with Mosaic format Parameters: diffusion directions=20, slices=25, average=2, number of b-value is 6 plus b0. 2. Extract different b-value subfiles using matlab 3. Raw data converted from DICOM to NIfTI using dcm2niigui.exe, resulting in four sets of files: **.img, **.hdr, **.bvec, **.bval. 3. Adjust **.bval file to the right format suitable for DTIstudio 4. Load **.img file to DTIstudio ? MRI View 3D, choose ?image file format? as ?Analyze?, then automatic image registration (AIR), the data saved as **.dat 5. Opening DTI mapping, select Philips REC format, add the **.dat file generated in Step 4. Copy the gradient table generated in Step 3 6. Calculate the tensor, color map, etc Question1: Is my data processing procedure correct? Question2: Under AIR condition, after sensor calculation and checking ?Anisotropy-FA?, I found that slice0 shows nothing, as if the information in slice0 is lost.The last slice shows apparently wrong FA because many pixels value FA=1. But the slices between these two slices seem to be normal. If I don?t do the AIR, slice0 information is not lost , and slice24 shows normal FA values.

It's much easier to load this from a disk. I have the disk at home. I can bring it in on Tuesday. I'll be at NIH on Monday. One issue is that there can not be any spaces in the words in the pathway. for example if you load the program in Start Menu ie. C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Start Menu DTI studio will not work because it doesn't like "Documents and Settings" - There is a space here. You have to install the software at C:\ level. If that doesn't help I'll just bring my disk, it should take 5mins.

When I open images with a certain voxel size and later swap to images with a different voxel size, DTI Studio still uses the old voxel size. For example, analyze images correctly shown in 0.86mm in-plane resolution were saved as 1x1mm voxels in rec format (but with correct slice thickness, which changed too), so the images were blurred in xy-plane. Earlier, I observed a similar problem with defining image parameters in the 'DTI mapping' tab: for example, the program switched some parameters automatically to the new image type, leaving others according to the old images, which lead to inconsistencies (for example, 39 slices, but the slice number went from 0 to 54). I solved the problem by reading in the new image type several times. Is there a less cumbersome procedure?

Raw and Rec files are raw formats without header. So, every time you open them, you have to tell DtiStudio about their image dimensions. If you find anything wrong about image dimensions, it is either you specified the wrong parameters or you didn't specify and DtiStudio simply used parameters of the previous data (DtiStudio assumes the parameter of the new data are the same as the previous ones if you don't specify). Because RAW and Rec files do not contain image dimension information, the dimension information you had in Analyze (i.e. 0.86mm) is lost. If you find the image resolution is 1mm later when you load Rec, that means you specified so when you load the Rec (e.g. matrix size is 256x256 and FOV is 256x256 in the data loading window). In this case, you simply had to type in correct FOV (e.g. 240x240). DtiStudio doesn't have functions to change dimensions. So before and after data processing, the dimensions should remain the same. If your image looks blurrier, the only reason I can think of is due to image co-registration. The same goes for the number slices. Analyze format contains this information but Rec/RAW don't. There is a field to specify the number of the slices in the initial data loading window. If you don't specify this field, it keeps the information from the previous session. If the number of the slices are 55, then you have to explicitly type "55" or choose "All slices".

To calculate a mean, you need a population. The "population" could be across 10 different individuals, 10 repeated scans, 10 voxels within the same individual, etc. I assume that you meant; "after tractography, it is common to obtain 10s of streamlines that belong to the same pathway and can we calculate a "mean streamline" of the 10s of streamlines?" If so, DtiStudio doesn't have such a function explicitly, but has the following functions; 1) After tractography (and thus obtained 10s of streamlines), this information is converted to 1/0 binary masking, in which voxels that contain the streamline are assigned "1". Then it reports mean FA of the masked voxels. 2) In the above method, a voxel that contains 1 streamline and 10 streamlines are both equally weighted (they are both assigned "1"). I believe that there is a function to perform "weighted FA calculation". Please ask Hangyi about the detail of this function. This may provide a similar result to calculating a mean tract and measuring FA. To divide the tractography results, DtiStudio can report FA of a tract at each slice level. For example, if you have 50 axial slices, you can get a report of FA at 50 axial levels. Then the problem is, you have to identify corresponding axial levels when you compare the reported slice-specific numbers across individuals. For example, the FA of the CST at axial slice #24 may correspond to slice #26 of another subject. When you get FA of the entire CST from the pons to the motor cortex, you don't have this problem. As soon as dividing the CST into "regions", you need spatial normalization across individuals to make sure you are comparing the same "regions" across individuals. There are several ways to do this normalization. Probably the easiest way is to normalize the orientation and the size of the brains across the population using a linear transformation such that each axial level is more or less consistent and thus the slice-by-slice reporting can be population averaged. Or you can use our full brain segmentation using the DiffeoMap/RoiEditor pipeline such that the CST pathway can be divided into anatomical segments such as "pons", "midbrain", "internal capusule", "corona radiata". Hope this helps.

Now I still wonder what anatomical structures are most likely included (or with which ones the cut-set is biggest) in IFO. When I look at the tract, it seems that the extreme capsule is definitely included, most likely also parts of external capsule, possibly uncinatus. Is this correct? I would also be very glad about three-dimensional data of the MdLF as delineated in Makris 2009 and/or the partialized SLF (I-III plus AF) but can't seem to find them anywhere. Do you have any ideas how to get access to these files? All I want to do is to assign our tracts to anatomical structures. Thank you so much for your help!

However, what I can tell you is that while DTIstudio *will *run on a virtual machine, it is less than ideal if you're going to be doing "a whole lot of data analysis". In the best case, it will probably be very slow, and in the worst case, you may simply run out of memory (depending on how much RAM you had to begin with, and how much you have chosen to allocate to VMware). Anyway, if you are using a newer Mac with an Intel chip, you should probably just install and run DTIstudio through a Bootcamp partition. This is what I finally settled on, and it works extremely well :) Hope that helps, Chase On Fri, Jul 22, 2011 at 10:34 AM, Jangouk, Parastoo < jangouk at kennedykrieger.org> wrote: > > Hello everybody, > > I want to work with DTIstudio in Mac environment using VWware.

The manual definition is usually treated as a gold standard (if it is done by an experienced person). However, as you pointed out, it has several problems; it requires training, time consuming, poor reproducibility, etc. Therefore, more automated approaches are much needed. The issue you raised, low resolution or poor contrast, is a more fundamental issue, because it affects both manual and automated approaches. For example, if the resolution is poor to reliably delineate a structure manually, the chance is high that the automated method is not reliable either. When you choose to use an automated method, you have to tell the computer which structure you want to define, like hippocampus. Here, there are several points I want to make; 1) There are often multiple ways to define a structure of interest. For example, different anatomist may define the hippocampus in slightly different ways. In literature, the size of the hippocampus could be different as much as twice. In this context, "well-known ROI" means "well-described definition by a famous neuroanatomist about how to define the hippocampus". You may find that there are surprisingly a small number of publications for this type of topics. For the hippocampus, I recommend you to go over some work by European consortium by Dr. Giovanni B. Frisoni 2) Some may want only a subregion of the hippocampus, like CA1, CA2, etc. As you try to define more and more detailed structures, you find that the smallest structure you can possibly define is the image pixels. Namely, you can theoretically define corresponding pixel coordinates across subjects. This is the idea of the voxel-based analysis. In this case, your ROI is one pixel. One of the most "well-known ROIs" in this case is the MNI coordinates. Instead of saying, "an ROI in the hippocampus", you can say, "MNI coordinate X, Y, Z". 3) However, usually, when one says, "ROI", that is not a single pixel, but a cluster of pixels that contain an anatomical representation, such as "the hippocampus". In this case, computer algorithms often require a prior definition. Many programs use a prior probabilistic map based on manual delineation. I believe a program like FreeSurfer comes with prior probabilistic maps. In this case, these maps serve as "well-known ROI". 4) Some other programs (like our MriStudio) use a pre-segmented atlas. As I mentioned above (#1), there is some degree of arbitrariness when we define a structure. However, once a structure is defined in an atlas, we can claim that we can apply a consistent definition to all images. There are widely used atlases for cortical ROIs (such as AAL and PickAtlas). The MriStudio program family (RoiEditor) comes with a pre-segmented atlas called, "white matter parcellation map (WMPM). This is a bit misnomer, because it also contains parcellation of the gray matter. I'm not sure if we can call it "well-known", but it is an option. 5) The approach I described in #4 is basically the same as the voxel-based approach (#2) because you need to warp the atlas (e.g. WMPM) to other subjects, which requires voxel-to-voxel mapping between the two images. The voxel-to-voxel mapping is performed independent of any structural definitions. This means, once voxel-to-voxel mapping (called image normalization or transformation) is completed, you can define any arbitrary structure in one brain and this definition is automatically transferred to the other. Therefore, you can define your own ROI (do not have to use the WMPM we provide). In this context, whether the ROI is "well-known" or not seems not a critical issue to me. What is more critical is if the voxel-to-voxel mapping is accurate or not. I hope you find this helpful.

Unfortunately, I now realized that I had tried to use these tracts before and they don't seem to work with our software. Probably they only are to be displayed by your software bundle dtistudio/roieditor. If I try to display them with SPM/Mricron, etc. they seem misplaced/shifted somehow (see picture). Somehow they don't seem to be normalized into ICBM-Space or our software doesn't understand the normalization somehow - which is weird because e.g. the dti-81 atlas of the LONI-Institute works fine. As an example, this is how SPM/mricron displays the left SLF-FT of your atlas. Probably you don't have a solution for this coregistration-issue by hand and I completely understand if you don't have the time to go into it. But I just thought that it could be worth it that you know about the issue.

We have been acquiring high-resolution DTI data of the mouse brain and use DTI studio to process and analyze the data. Since these are phenotypically different mice, the differences in anatomy are not obvious and in order to assess DTI differences (FA for example), we need to make sure that all the brains are aligned and matched to each other. While there seems to be a way for performing the co-registration step within DTI studio, I have not been able to figure out a way to save the ROI such that it can be used for all the different samples. Can you/anyone else please guide us through this?

I am starting a new trial and trying to decide on acquisition parameters. We are using a 3 T Siemens Skyra system and acquiring EPIs for DTI and task fMRI, along with T1-weighted MPRAGE. For parallel imaging (iPAT), there is the option to use GRAPPA or mSENESE - default is GRAPPA. I realise that acquisition times of EPIs are not directly affected by iPAT, however it is meant to improve geometric distortion around sinuses etc but at a cost - up to 30% signal loss. I am having trouble deciding whether to leave iPAT off - more SNR but possibly more distortion, or is the trade-off for less distortion and less signal worth it?

You should use iPAT. You can recover SNR loss by scanning longer but it's very difficult to correct image distortion by B0 susceptibility. My experience with Siemens mSENSE has not been very good and I always use GRAPPA.

There are numerous articles that validate these methods as been more preferable. Siemens does also have some literature that supports this. The main issue is the choice of technique, Siemens does emphasise the GRAPPA techniques as it does have fewer reconstruction artefacts but mSENSE may potential have a slight SNR advantage. You are using a SKYRA which is a great scanner it would be more beneficial if you are using the 32 Channel coil but take into account 3t has less SNR deep penetration so if you increase your parallel imaging factors to much your will strip out a disproportionality large amounts of SNR centrally as compared to peripheral areas.

I am starting a new trial and trying to decide on acquisition parameters. We are using a 3 T Siemens Skyra system and acquiring EPIs for DTI and task fMRI, along with T1-weighted MPRAGE. For parallel imaging (iPAT), there is the option to use GRAPPA or mSENESE - default is GRAPPA. I realise that acquisition times of EPIs are not directly affected by iPAT, however it is meant to improve geometric distortion around sinuses etc but at a cost - up to 30% signal loss. I am having trouble deciding whether to leave iPAT off - more SNR but possibly more distortion, or is the trade-off for less distortion and less signal worth it? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

The operations are consistent with VTK. Here is a snipt from VTK's documentation. Hope this can give you some idea. vtkInteractorStyle implements the "joystick" style of interaction. That is, holding down the mouse keys generates a stream of events that cause continuous actions (e.g., rotate, translate, pan, zoom). (The class vtkInteractorStyleTrackball implements a grab and move style.) The event bindings for this class include the following: Keypress j / Keypress t: toggle between joystick (position sensitive) and trackball (motion sensitive) styles. In joystick style, motion occurs continuously as long as a mouse button is pressed. In trackball style, motion occurs when the mouse button is pressed and the mouse pointer moves. Keypress c / Keypress a: toggle between camera and actor modes. In camera mode, mouse events affect the camera position and focal point. In actor mode, mouse events affect the actor that is under the mouse pointer. Button 1: rotate the camera around its focal point (if camera mode) or rotate the actor around its origin (if actor mode). The rotation is in the direction defined from the center of the renderer's viewport towards the mouse position. In joystick mode, the magnitude of the rotation is determined by the distance the mouse is from the center of the render window. Button 2: pan the camera (if camera mode) or translate the actor (if actor mode). In joystick mode, the direction of pan or translation is from the center of the viewport towards the mouse position. In trackball mode, the direction of motion is the direction the mouse moves. (Note: with 2-button mice, pan is defined as -Button 1.) Button 3: zoom the camera (if camera mode) or scale the actor (if actor mode). Zoom in/increase scale if the mouse position is in the top half of the viewport; zoom out/decrease scale if the mouse position is in the bottom half. In joystick mode, the amount of zoom is controlled by the distance of the mouse pointer from the horizontal centerline of the window. Keypress 3: toggle the render window into and out of stereo mode. By default, red-blue stereo pairs are created. Some systems support Crystal Eyes LCD stereo glasses; you have to invoke SetStereoTypeToCrystalEyes() on the rendering window. Keypress e: exit the application. Keypress f: fly to the picked point Keypress p: perform a pick operation. The render window interactor has an internal instance of vtkCellPicker that it uses to pick. Keypress r: reset the camera view along the current view direction. Centers the actors and moves the camera so that all actors are visible. Keypress s: modify the representation of all actors so that they are surfaces. Keypress u: invoke the user-defined function. Typically, this keypress will bring up an interactor that you can type commands in. Typing u calls UserCallBack() on the vtkRenderWindowInteractor, which invokes a vtkCommand::UserEvent. In other words, to define a user-defined callback, just add an observer to the vtkCommand::UserEvent on the vtkRenderWindowInteractor object. Keypress w: modify the representation of all actors so that they are wireframe. Thanks!

I find that with the Seed Region Growing tool, it seems to include a lot of non-brain when I apply the threshold (and when I increase the threshold, there are lots of 'holes' in the ROI that I have to fix manually, and even then it doesn't always get rid of the non-brain). When I use the Skull Stripping tool, I don't change many parameters - just change 'Segment Downsample' to 1 (as per a previous post). This has generally worked well but for one participant, it has stripped out a part in the middle of the brain... I hope I have explained it alright. I would appreciate any advice for a consistent way to skull strip my data. Thanks very much! Kind regards, Joanne -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

They show up most prominently around high signal areas--so it's the bright fluid, not specifically flow, that is the problem. They show up in your FA maps because those are generated relative to the non-DWI or B0 image. There are two physics solutions and one image processing approach: 1) increase your native (not just reconstructed) resolution to limit the ringing. (It's also called Gibbs ringing, but that doesn't help you address it except in searching the literature.) Since the ringing is in both directions, it will cost you some time (and SNR) to increase the resolution. Are you using parallel imaging to accelerate the acquisition? If so, you might be able to reduce the artifact just by cutting down on the acceleration factor. 2) suppress the bright fluid signal in your non-DWI image. A few people have suggested using an isotropically-weighted b=20 instead of a b=0 image so suppress large free fluid signals; this is still minimal compared to the b=800 or b=1000 so this shouldn't produce a quantitative difference. 3) More filtering of your data. There are more smoothing filters available than you could possibly test. Simple interpolation will reduce the choppy (pixelated, checkered) appearance but will not address the underlying ringing. The scanner should have some interpolation/filtering/ringing tools available; if these are already on maybe they're not performing the way you think they should. Should you be concerned? I'll leave that to the processing and results experts. But now you know more about it... Regards, Alex ____________________ M.

I think it's a truncation error, but not sure. If it is a truncation error, it may decrease by making the image matrix larger, but it causes loss of SNR and larger deformation. So you win some and lose some. I personally like to use a smaller matrix (use only the echoes with enough SNR) and take the artifacts as part of the game.... On Thu, Aug 4, 2011 at 3:16 PM, Mark A.

Once you read the data and process them, then we offer two ways to save them; Raw or Analyze. The Raw files can be read by Philips REC because Philips REC is RAW files. So, RAW files can be read as the RAW format or as the REC format. They are the same. Hope this clarify your question.

I will explore further to see if I can reduce the artifact a bit. To answer your questions Alex: - We are using parallel imaging (GRAPPA 2) with a 256 FOV and 128 matrix size (2mm resolution). So I don't think going to a higher resolution will help (not even sure the scanner will go much higher). - I will check for interpolation/filtering/ringing tools at the scanner console to improve the situation, maybe they are turned off in my protocol. - I will also attempt to increase b from 0 to 20 as you suggest to see if that helps.

For 1.5T and 3T, I use 2.5mm isotropic resolution for 1.5T and 2.2mm for 3T. I think 2.0mm is possible with 3T, but I prefer to have higher SNR (2.2mm) than higher resolution (2.0mm) For both Ts, I use the same 96x96 matrix (zerofilled to 192x192 (Siemens) or 256x256 (Philips)) so the FOV is 240 (2.5mm) or 212 (2.2mm). For 1.5T, I use at least 60 DWIs (about 8-9 min), preferably 90 DWIs (more than 10 min less than 15 min) and for 3T 24 - 60 DWIs (4.5-9 min). This means, for Siemens, 12-orientation x multiple scans and for Philips 32-orientation x multiple scans. I prefer b-value = 700, but 1,000 is also fine. Parallel imaging is "must". TE/TR is shortest, although for Philips, I add 5-10 ms to the shortest TE due to Eddy current and gradient load issue.

Message-ID: Dear MRIStudio users, I have four human brain datasets that are scanned sequentially (back to back) of a single subject using the same DTI protocol. I want to get an averaged dataset out of the four. Before doing that, motion/eddy current correction is definitely needed. I am wondering among the three methods provided by DTIStudio, i.e. AIR/MI?theory AIR. By visual inspection, there is rotation/shifting between the very first dataset and the very last by about 2 voxels. For this subtle movement, is there a conclusion so far regarding which coregistration is the best (without introducing errors! Sometimes AIR does more harm than good by misalignment.) Thank you for your thoughts!!

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: If the scans are not co-registered (the subject went out and came back to the scanner), I suggest you to calculate the tensor first and register the tensor using DiffeoMap and linear registration (AIR or MI). If you register the raw DWI data, you may get a bit better SNR (this is my guess), but you have to make sure to use the b-table re-orientation scheme in the AIR. I would recommend to use AIR or MI (MI may take a lot of time), although I don't have much experience in the cross-scan registration. I think the first method (calculate tensor and then register) is the easiest.

After the calculation, an ADC map - mean image is generated, is this the apparent or average diffusion coefficient? Thanks, Rachael ***************************************************************************************************************************** Judy, in DtiStudio, ADC (or also called MD) should be obtained from "Trace". Trace is defined as Dxx+Dyy+Dzz. If you divide it by 3, it becomes "Average diffusion constant (ADC)" or "Mean diffusivity (MD)". We like to use the term "trace" because it has clear mathematical definition while ADC is also used for "Apparent diffusion constant", which has a different meaning from "average diffusion constant".

Hangyi, we should change the name. The "mean" in DtiStudio is the mean of individual ADC maps. For example, if we use a 12-orientation method, it is possible to calculate ADC of the first gradient orientation. Likewise, ADC of the second, third, and up to the 12th gradient orientations can be calculated. Then, you can get 12 ADCs. The "mean" in this case is the average of the 12 ADCs. The "mean diffusivity" is calculated from the average of the three eigenvalues. Therefore, we can get only after the tensor calculation. I hope this clarify your question.

In DtiStudio, we use the exhaustive approach, meaning fiber tracking is initiated from the center of all pixels above the threshold. If the number of the seed points is increased, the number of the fibers increases too. So, it is parameter-dependent. You may be able to compare the numbers between subjects but it may simply reflect the size of the tracts, which can be also obtained from the number of pixels. The number of pixels is also reported in DtiStudio and has a physical dimension, which may be easier to use. > > (2) what is the physical measure of diffusivity values (e.g. radial > diffusivity: 10 exp-4 what? cm/s or m/s?) > > It depends on the unit you use for the b-value. > > Thanks a lot > Andreas > > _______________________________________________ > mristudio-users mailing list > mristudio-users at mristudio.org > http://lists.mristudio.org/mailman/listinfo/ > Unsubscribe, send a blank email to: > mristudio-users-unsubscribe at mristudio.org > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

In your example, there should be only one pixel at each slice and thus you get the FA of that single pixel. If you want the average of the entire fiber, you need the reported FA before you click "profile". Also, if you want tracts between two ROIs, you may also want to try the "CUT" operation, which waits for two ROI inputs and retain only the trajectories between the two ROIs.

A problem I ran across during AIR in DiffeoMap is that since the trauma is causing a hematoma in the B0 image, the registration is very poor. On one subject, I performed DiffeoMap AIR using the Mean DWI image and the registration came out pretty good. I am wondering if this is a valid approach to perform AIR registration. For the LDDMM registration, usually I use the FA and the Trace image to drive the Kimap. However, I think I will get the same poor results. Should I use just the DWI image to drive the LDDMM registration? There would be no need to do "Intensity Normalization" on the DWI image, correct?

This is similar to non-liner fitting of a XY plot, which always requires you to do linear fitting first to get a good initial estimate of the non-linear fitting parameters. There are cases when AIR fails often due to high intensity inside or outside the brains of patients. In this case, changing the contrast, as you did could be one solution. You can't change the contrast ad hoc for LDDMM but for linear transformation, it is just an initialization. So, all you want to do is to bring the two brains as close as possible. So, it's ok to use different approach for different data. What we often do is, 1) try mutual information, 2) use landmarks, or 3) do skull strip. Most important things is, to make sure that the linear transformation is good. Be careful about the angle of the brain and the brainstem. The sagittal rotation is one of the most difficult parameters, while X, Y, Z translation and coronal / axial rotation is usually easy to register. If the sagittal angle is not satisfactory, you should try different approaches. Also, we recently start to use 9-mode affine (no shearing) very often, which is now available in the latest DiffeoMap.

It is good to know I am on the right track by using the DWI image. I am confused by this line: "You can't change the contrast ad hoc for LDDMM." Does this mean that I can only use the B0, Trace, and FA images whenever I do the LDDMM registration? I skullstripped both the template and subject DWI images. My thinking was to use the skullstripped DWI images to drive the linear transformation, and then (assuming a good AIR registration) use the linearly-registered subject DWI image and the template DWI image to get a Kimap file that I could apply to the rest of the linearly-registered subject images. I would do this for this entire cohort of 17 subjects. Or am I to read your response to mean that I should only do a linear registration on the subjects and then stop there without doing an LDDMM transformation? Or do I use the DWI image for the AIR, and then use the FA and Trace for the LDDMM? Some of the subjects have hematomas in about 10-15% of the brain, so it is a significant region.

It is defined for the three coordinate directions, x,y,z (the space in which the subject was in the scanner). Note that mean ADC and mean diffusivity is not the same (at least if you look at the definition). For mean diffusivity, the eigenvalues have to be estimated from the tensors. In DTI Studio, you can get the 'trace diffusivity' which equals 3 times the mean diffusivity.

After the calculation, an ADC map - mean image is generated, is this the apparent or average diffusion coefficient? Thanks, Rachael **************************************************************************** ************************************************* Judy, in DtiStudio, ADC (or also called MD) should be obtained from "Trace". Trace is defined as Dxx+Dyy+Dzz. If you divide it by 3, it becomes "Average diffusion constant (ADC)" or "Mean diffusivity (MD)". We like to use the term "trace" because it has clear mathematical definition while ADC is also used for "Apparent diffusion constant", which has a different meaning from "average diffusion constant".

However, I have come across this questino from one of my supervisors and cannot really answer it and am hoping for your help/expertise. Here is goes: Is the FA value still a viable measure to look at and use to make a correlation if you are using FA values to pull the white matter tract? It seems like if the tract is made from FA values then you should not be able to use the FA as an outcome variable. This question has come up as I presented my research idea and I'm not sure how to answer it. Most studies that use DTI use FA thresholds to pull the tracts and then also the FA values (eg. mean FA) to make comparisons between the tracts. I really hope that my question makes sense as I have found it very hard to word properly.

If you search the Mailing List archive ( http://lists.mristudio.org/pipermail/mristudio-users/) with "number of fibers" (using ctrl-f), you can find some past communications. My typical reply is; The number of the fiber itself doesn't carry anatomical meaning. In DtiStudio, we use the exhaustive approach, meaning fiber tracking is initiated from the center of all pixels above the threshold. If the number of the seed points is increased, the number of the fibers increases too. So, it is parameter-dependent. You may be able to compare the numbers between subjects but it may simply reflect the size of the tracts, which can be also obtained from the number of pixels. The number of pixels is also reported in DtiStudio and has a physical dimension, which may be easier to use. As you can imagine, it is not possible to link "the number of fibers" to the real axonal fibers. My lab doesn't use this metric.

So, it is parameter-dependent." Can you please throw more light on this I am not able to understand the following; according to my understanding DTI studio starts tracking from all voxels above the threshold say FA=0.2, bending angle =41 (which i set) after tracking from all voxels it will give me fibers running between the two ROIS which I choose in order to reconstruct CST or other tracts, so by seed points does it mean the size of these ROIs which I draw or something different, suppose if I keep the ROI size same in two conditions (two time points of scan in the same subject) then can number of fibers will make sense . Thanks for your time.

If you search the Mailing List archive (http://lists.mristudio.org/pipermail/mristudio-users/) with "number of fibers" (using ctrl-f), you can find some past communications. My typical reply is; The number of the fiber itself doesn't carry anatomical meaning. In DtiStudio, we use the exhaustive approach, meaning fiber tracking is initiated from the center of all pixels above the threshold. If the number of the seed points is increased, the number of the fibers increases too. So, it is parameter-dependent. You may be able to compare the numbers between subjects but it may simply reflect the size of the tracts, which can be also obtained from the number of pixels. The number of pixels is also reported in DtiStudio and has a physical dimension, which may be easier to use. As you can imagine, it is not possible to link "the number of fibers" to the real axonal fibers. My lab doesn't use this metric.

As a matter of fact, there are programs out there, in which you can control the number of seeds per voxel, like 10 seeds randomly distributed inside a voxel. Then you may get 10 more fibers that penetrate your ROIs. Does it make sense?

I have one request to you. After processing images in DTI studio, I use ROI editor for ROI-based analysis. Occasionally, I need to see some information, e.g. Information on the image. However to get the image info, I need to run DTI studio. In DTI studio, in any image plane, there are couple of options are available, such as Image level adjusting, Save this image as, copy, Information on the image, Plain-Image view, and more. In ROI editor, the options are only three: Image level adjusting, Save this image as, and copy. It might be very useful if we have the same options in ROI editor. In addition, Plain-Image view will be a very handy function to add to ROI editor to view 3D ROI drawn in a series of images at a glance.

Message-ID: Hello all DTI experts, I am stuck at DTI problem as I am progessing DTI images for Trachtography. 1) I have 17 blocks and 44 image sets, making it 748 dicom total images. 2) I need to convert those dicom files to FSL nifti format for image processing in FSL. I did that using the MRI convert which converts my dicom files into FSL nifti. 3) And then I transfered (copies and pasted my nifti file) into the FSL for BET and eddy-motion correction. Everything seemed to work fine in the FSL. 4) Then I tranfered my final processed file in the windows for DTI fiber tracking for Trachtography in DTI studio. Surprising I found out that my final images are only 44 images with 1 block of image set, when I viewed them in DTI studio. I was really disapponited that where did the rest of my images go after processing ni FSL. I will really appreciate your feedback and help, and I am struggling hard to figure out this problem..

There was an email DNS resolution Oct. 10th between 2pm and 4:30pm. Jobs are in the queue and being processed. It may be a day or two before the normal processing resumes.

Kimap001 is the result with the most linear-like (less elastic) transformation. Kimap001+002 gives next step more elastic transformation. Kimap001+002+003 (=Kimap) provides the most elastic transformation. You can see how gradually transformation gets more and more elastic. When you apply Kimap001 + Kimap002, you can transform the original image twice, first by Kimap001 and then Kimap002; Kimap002(Kimap001(Image)). Or, you can combine Kimap001 and Kimap002 to create one transformation matrix (say "Kimap001+002") and then do transformation once; Kimap001+002 (Image). The latter prevents too many interpolation steps. > And How to choice > the ?/? ratio value in paper "Multi-contrast large deformation > diffeomorphic metric mapping for diffusion tensor imaging"? > If your data is mostly young adults without much atrophy, one-shot LDDMM with alpha = 0.005 should give you a good result. If your subjects have a large amount of anatomical changes (e.g. severe atrophy like AD patients), then I would recommend 3-step cascading alpha with 0.01, 0.005, and 0.002, although, in many cases, the final step (Kimap003) usually doesn't deform the image much because most transformation is done by alpha=0.005 (Kimap001+002). > > *Thank you everyone for your continued help and support! * > ** > Charng-Chyi Shieh > Radiological Technologist > > _______________________________________________ > mristudio-users mailing list > mristudio-users at mristudio.org > http://lists.mristudio.org/mailman/listinfo/ > Unsubscribe, send a blank email to: > mristudio-users-unsubscribe at mristudio.org > > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

My goal is to do an anlysis on my FA/MD map such as done in http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed?term=20570617 (paper by Zhang). Therefore, I have used the steps described in https://www.mristudio.org/wiki/user_manual/diffeomap. I first processed the DTI data using 'DTI-Studio' and then skull stripped. To obtain the AIR and LDDMM transformation matrices I co-registered my skull stripped FA/MD/B0 map with 'JHU_MNI_SS_b0_ss' template using AIR and then used 'FA + b0 dual-contrast LDDMM' with 'JHU_MNI_SS_b0_ss' and 'JHU_MNI_SS_FA_ss' templates. After obtaining the LDDMM matrix, I apply the Hmap to the 'JHU_MNI_SS_WMPM_TypeII' template. But it looks to me the image I got is having some problem. I am not sure if doing some mistakes. I used trilinear interpolation for Hmap. Can anyone please tell me if I am following the correct procedure? Where I may go wrong?

Each ROI in the WMPM contains artificially assigned numbers; say, ROI-A is 12 and adjacent ROI-B is 20. If you transform this map using trilinear, it would generate the number "16" right in the middle of the region A and B, but the number 16 may be assigned to a totally unrelated ROI. So, please try nearest neighbor and see how it goes. On Tue, Oct 11, 2011 at 9:33 PM, manoj sarma wrote: > Hello DTI Experts, > > I am trying to do an atlas based analysis using LDDMM.

The capabilities of CAWorks include: 1. Interactive landmark placement to create segmentation (mask) of desired region of interest 2. Specialized landmark placement plugins for subcortical structures such as hippocampus and amygdala 3. Support for multiple Medical Imaging data formats, such as Nifti, Analyze, Freesurfer, DICOM and landmark data 4. Quadra Planar view visualization 5. Shape Analysis plugin modules, such as Large Deformation Diffeomorphic Metric Mapping (LDDMM) Current enhancements to CAWorks have focused on interactive support for landmarking of subcortical structures. Specific plugins are available for landmark placement of the hippocampus, amygdala and entorhinal cortex regions. After landmarking is completed, CAWorks facilitates submission for automated segmentation processing. CAWorks is being used by the Biomarkers for Older Controls At Risk for Dementia (BIOCARD), Resource for Quantitative Functional MRI: TRD4, Validation of Structural/Functional MRI Localization and Biomedical Informatics Research Network (BIRN) projects. CAWorks extends ParaView, an open source, multi-platform, freely available program for parallel, interactive, scientific visualization. An important visualization tool for TeraGrid researchers, its client-server architecture facilitates remote visualization of datasets and the generation of level of detail (LOD) models that maintain interactive frame rates for large datasets. Tutorials describing CAWorks for the ROI feature are located at: http://caportal.cis.jhu.edu/tutorials If you have questions regarding this software, please put CAWorks in your subject line for the mristudio-users mailing list.

When you draw an ROI, the ROI line is drawn based on the pixel resolution of the display. When you confirm it as an ROI in your image, this high-resolution ROI definition has to be converted to the low-resolution image pixels. You won't feel this when you are working on axial slices because the axial [X, Y] resolutions are high. However, if you draw ROIs in sagittal or coronal, the Z orientation typically has much lower resolution. When RoiEditor picks nearest pixel based on your high-res ROI drawing, you notice the jump. This is something we can't fix. Susumu On Mon, Oct 24, 2011 at 1:51 PM, Xin Li wrote: > It is a bug of ROIEditor. It happens when the image is not isotropic.

Once slices (or pixels) are rejected (manually or automatically), they are not used to calculate the tensor (including the tensor-derived maps such as FA). In this process, you can't save the raw data with your rejection information, although you can save the information about which images you rejected. I think it doesn't matter for image quantification using RoiEditor because what you need are the tensor-derived maps which are already calculated with your rejection information.

The partitioning will be easiest to do in the sagittal view as it is based on measurements from the anterior most part to the posterior most part of the callosum; however I am having issues with drawing ROIs in the sagittal view. When I draw an ROI in the axial view with the pencil function, then fill it, and add it, it works really well (as shown in your tutorial). But when I try to draw in the sagittal or coronal view, when I click "add," the ROI that I have drawn shifts to the lowermost portion of the view instead of where I did the drawing and does not transfer and show up in the other views. Have you encountered this problem previously and do you know of any possible solutions? Any information you can provide me with would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Atlas-guided tract reconstruction for automated and comprehensive examination of the white matter anatomy. NeuroImage 2010;52(4):1289-1301. PMC2910162 This paper describes the same idea. If you want to use WMPM as ROIs, you first have to register it to each subject. Assuming the registration is good, you can turn the WMPM into ROIs by the following procedure; 1) Read the WMPM as an image, not as ROI into RoiEditor 2) By placing the cursor to a pacellated region of interest, you can read the assigned value. For example, the splenium of the CC is "119". 3) Use the threshold tool and choose pixels with a value "119". This operation selects all pixels in the splenium of the CC. 4) Register the selected pixels as "Object 1". 5) Repeat the procedure to the second region of interest and register the selected pixels to "Object 2". 6) Once you define all regions of interest as separate Objects, save the Objects (the "save" icon in the "ROI" section) as "Binary Map" 7) Read FAQ15 at https://www.mristudio.org/wiki/faq to learn how to use Binary Map for fiber tracking in DtiStudio. You can combine multiple ROIs with AND/OR/NOT operations. For many white matter tracts, we already generated combinations of parcels defined in the WMPM (e.g. a combination for CST, SLF, etc), which can be registered to each patient and ready for fiber tracking. I believe these WMPM-ROI files are posted somewhere in our website. Please contact Yajing for more detail.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Dear Maya, Thank you for your interest in our neonatal atlas. Please visit http://cmrm.med.jhmi.edu/ then click 'Atlas' then 'Neonate brain atlas' in the leftmost column. After registration, you can download our neonatal atlas. You can normalize your image to this atlas using DiffeoMap (or whatever software you want, including SPM or FSL). The Diffeomap will output 2 transformation matrices at the same time. One is a Kimap (transformation from your image to the template) and the other is an Hmap (transformation from the template to your image). You can normalize you image to the template space by applying the Kimap to your image. If you want to overlay our parcellation map to your image in original space, you can apply Hmap to our parcellation map to create the parcellation map in your original space. To measure scalar values (e.g., FA, MD, etc) of each structure (parcel), you can use the ROIeditor. Hope this helps.

I am interested in now subdividing the SLF into it's component parts, but from the literature, it seems as though the ROIs and tract images don't include the dorsomedial portion of the SLF, known as SLF I. SLF II and III figure prominently, however. According to the atlas, the region where the SLF I is usually found has been denoted as superior frontal gyrus white matter (SFG-WM) and superior parietal gyrus white matter (SPL-WM). Is this the most recent terminology? This link to a recent Nature article better illustrates the region I am trying to identify. http://www.nature.com/neuro/journal/v14/n10/fig_tab/nn.2905_F1.html Thank you!

If the scans are not co-registered (the subject went out and came back to the scanner), I suggest you to calculate the tensor first and register the tensor using DiffeoMap and linear registration (AIR or MI). If you register the raw DWI data, you may get a bit better SNR (this is my guess), but you have to make sure to use the b-table re-orientation scheme in the AIR. I would recommend to use AIR or MI (MI may take a lot of time), although I don't have much experience in the cross-scan registration. I think the first method (calculate tensor and then register) is the easiest.

In general, there are two different ways to define the white matter anatomy. One is based on the location. For example, "The anterior limb of internal capsule (ALIC)" is a white matter location between the caudate and the putamen. The second way to define the white matter is based on the pathway. In the ALIC, there are corticothalamo and thalamocortical pathways. There are also descending pathways such as cortiopontine, cortiobulbar, and corticospinal tracts. If I pick up, for example, the coritopontine fiber, it starts the motor cortex and go through the peripheral white matter beneath the motor cortex, the corona radiata, the internal capsule, the cerebral peduncle, and the pons. This exemplifies how the same white matter area can be called in different ways. To me, the SLF I, II, and III are more based on pathway definition, connecting different cortical areas. The white matter parcellation maps (PM) we provide are purely based on location information. Therefore, it is quite possible that the pathway-defined structure, such as SLF I not only occupies a portion of the our PM-based SLF and also a portion of SFG-WM. I have to check Xin and Yajing, but the current RoiEditor also contains probabilistic coordinates based on the pathway-based white matter definition. I believe that contains SLF I, II, and III. If your RoiEditor doesn't have these (should be RoiEditor/Images/Tracts), you can find them in our website (lbam.med.jhmi.edu). For the definition of these probabilistic coordinates, please refer to; Zhang YJ, Zhang JY, Oishi K, Faria AV, Jiang HY, Li X, Akhter K, Rosa-Neto P, Pike GB, Evans A, Toga AW, Woods R, Mazziotta JC, Miller MI, van Zijl PCM, Mori S.

If possible I would like to ask a couple of questions just to clarify some questions that I have about the basic workings. 1. In Diffeomap I perform Air Linear Registration in order to align my data with that of the Template (in my case I use the Talairach atlas). My images are 256*256*55 and I normalise it with the template of dimensions 192*192*136. How much does the difference in image size affect the accuracy and reliability of the subsequent analysis. * As an additional to ensure the best LDDMM result, is the contrast of the two images the most important in setting up the images before entering the LDDMM screen? 2. When I load the Talairach WMPM from diffeomap as an ROI the regions of interest are loaded as object 1,2 etc. Is it possible to get the name of each region of interest? When I perform the intensity measurements using the WMPM I get the a table listing a the same amount of parts as the objects i.e. in the case of Talairach 170. I then use the following paper to find what the abbreviations stand for: Oishi et al,Atlas-based whole brain white matter analysis using large deformation diffeomorphic metric mapping: Application to normal elderly and Alzheimer?s disease participants euroimage 2009 June ; 46(2): 486?499. (Appendix A part 4) Is this the correct approach? Or is it the that the regions of interest in the ROI objects box contain these parts as can be seen when I choose the button under Atlas: WMPM of division of defined ROIs 3. When I load or create the tensor image file (.d file) in DIffeoMap I am asked if I want to flip the eigenvectors. If I save the file as eigenvectors being flipped when I created the file do I also have to flip them again while opening the file afterwards or do I assume they are now in the correct direction? 4. Finally, when I create an ROI in either DTIStudio or ROI editor I save it as a binary map. When I then try to reload it in the fibre tracking section I am informed that the"Image parameters in this file are not consistent with with current ones, continue?" When I select yes the ROI loads in the expected position. Is it a normal occurance to get an error even though I created the ROI in the same image during the same DTIStudio session? If any of these questions have already been answered, please just point me to the appropiate link.

Non-linear normalization aggressively deforms images to find the best match. If the contrasts of the two images are different, the matching becomes a very difficult task. So, please make sure that you use the same contrast images and do intensity (histogram) matching before LDDMM. 2.

If you load an ROI map in the binary format, you get the generic ROI names (i.e. 1, 2, 3,,,).

I would suggest you to use a correct table and forget about this business. In old days, before the table information was stored in DICOM header, we had only one generic gradient table from each vendor. These generic tables had arbitrary +/- definition and we had to figure out the +/- sign empirically. In this case, we often calculated the tensor using the generic table first and correct the sign later by "flipping" the vector orientation. There are two occasions when the flipping becomes important. One is tractography. We load the eigenvector, flip the sign, and do tractography. The other is image transformation. We load the tensor file, flip the sign, and transform. Here, once the transformation is done, you don't have to do any further flipping. > 4.

For example, if you did DTI, you can get b0 image, FA image, MD image, etc. If you submit two FA images; one from the atlas and one from your patient data, it is "single-channel" LDDMM. If you submit FA and b0; FA & b0 from the atlas and FA & b0 from your patient data, it is "multi-channel" LDDMM. The multi-channel LDDMM may give you more accurate registration between the atlas and the subject. Both single and multi-channel LDDMM give you only one set of Hmap/Kimap to match the atlas and subject images. Hope this clarifies your question.

When I apply the Hmap from the LDDMM analysis to the WMPM the WMPM is converted perfectly. When I then apply the inverted AIR file I am running into a problem. The file does not seem to convert it correctly. I have searched through the forum and applied the approach suggested in a couple of posts but I am still having the same issue. If anyone has experience of this and could help me out it would be much appreciated. The atlas?is 192*192*136 while my data is 256*256*55. When I apply the Inverted air file the WMPM gets converted but seems to remain in the original dimensions. For example, there are originally 136 slices and the air_inverted file also has 136 slices but an image occurs in only 55 of them. The image is also?compressed to the bottom right of the frame.

Nothing else is in the queue. Did something change with the data, parameters or submission software? I don't have records of the submissions. If you have the MD5SUM, send it to me in direct email. I'll try to trace it. From here, it doesn't look like we received the submissions. -Anthony > Hi Anthony, > > Thanks for reply. > > Yes this is my registered email id.
