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.

Some studies were made in Philips Achieva 1,5T and other in a GE HD 1,5T. The good thing is that all studies have 33 directions. But it's the only similarity. Can I normalize these studies?

It is always related to your effect size. If you are following a stroke patients and Warrarian degeneration causes 50% FA change, then you can just scan a couple of subjects in both scanners and show the maximum difference could be only within 10%. I think this is a valid logic. However, if you can't do a comparison study like this (e.g. one of the scanners is out of commission) and you are going after 5% effect size, then you have a very tough case, especially for publication.

Message-ID: Hello DTI experts, I have a problem in retrieving my saved ROI fibers data in DTI studio. Here are the steps that I follow in saving my Fibers after performing the Fiber tracking: (1) I saved my fibers in Analyze format (binary image). (2) when I go back to load the fibers from the ROI operation tool menu, I select the binary image from the menu box. Then the image parameter window popps up, then I select the Raw data option (I make sure that all the image parameters are the same as original). (3) Then the message shows up saying "the image parameters in the file are not consistent with the current ones"..and then i click yes to continue, it shows me some odd fibers which weren't part of my oriniginal fiber track trajectory (such as ILF, IFO, CC fibers which I saved originally). I can save the fibers fine with save selected fibers options of the saving the fiber track button, but I need to save the fibers in the analyze format for our lab's automation program that needs the analyze (binary image) format for the images. I'll truely appreciate your feedback and help on this matter. Thanking you, Sincerely, Supreet kaur, Biomedical research engineer, Nationwide Childrens Hospital, Columbus, OH (614)355-3509 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Use the TBSS scripts to calcuate FA and diffusivity. I am also pretty sure once you have spatially normailzed the images, you can use Talairach Daemon to define your ROIs. I am just assuming it has this functionality. I have only ever done this with AFNI. My next idea would be to use Freesurfer. As for segmenting tissue types, I think FIRST is used for this.

Neuroscience is entering an era of accelerated discovery driven by the application of new molecular, genetic and imaging technologies, which will provide a deeper understanding of the regulation and function of the nervous system. Significant advances in determining the molecular regulation of nerve cell function and development will have a major impact on our understanding of more complex areas such as behaviour, cognition, ageing, neurological disease and mental illness. Discoveries will also provide, for the first time, a real opportunity to develop new therapeutics to treat mental and neurological diseases, which account for a staggering 45 per cent of the disease burden in Australia. A major goal for QBI researchers is to promote excellence in neuroscience by fostering the exchange of ideas, establishing new collaborations and augmenting partnerships that already exist within the wider UQ neuroscience community. The role The development of the brain is characterised by the formation of connections between neurons. One of the largest fibre tracts in the brain is the corpus callosum, which connects neurons in the left and right cerebral hemispheres. We are using molecular and genetic approaches as well as state-of-the-art imaging technologies to discover how the brain is wired up during development. This work has direct implications for understanding how the brain functions and the pathophysiological mechanism of psychiatric disorders, by integrating the multi-level network features obtained with various functional and anatomical brain imaging technologies on different scales. A PhD project is available to utilise neuroimaging technologies to discover mechanisms of brain wiring. The project involves developing neuroimage analysis tools and software and applying them to biological problems. In this role the student will develop skills in developing computational algorithms and computer programming in neuroimage analysis that could be utilised in both basic research and clinical areas. The person Applicants should have an excellent GPA (>5.5 at UQ) and have a background in mathematics and computer science, especially good knowledge on image analysis. The student will be jointly supervised by Professor Linda Richards (QBI) who is an expert in brain development and Professor Tianzi Jiang (QBI, Centre for Advanced Imaging, UQ and Institute for Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Bejing) who is an expert in neuroimaging. The ideal candidate will have primary experience in image analysis, especially for diffusion MRI, but this is not essential. Outstanding C/C++ programming skills in Linux are highly desired. Secondary experience with parallel computing and in using a high performance cluster platform would be an advantage. Applicants should hold a First Class Honours degree or equivalent and be eligible for an Australian Postgraduate Award (APA) or equivalent international scholarship such as an International Postgraduate Research (IPRS) award. The current scholarship rate for the Australian Postgraduate Award is $23,728 per annum tax-free for three years. For further information on scholarships please refer to http://www.uq.edu.au/grad-school/scholarships-and-fees. Enquiries Please contact Professor Linda Richards on richards at uq.edu.au or the QBI RHD student recruitment officer, Dr Blake Chapman, on qbistudents at uq.edu.au.

If I generate an FA color map from these slices, it visually matches slices from the color map generated on the Philips console so the following gradient table appears to be working alright: 0: 0.000, 0.000, 0.000 1: -0.465, 0.503, 0.728 2: -0.527, 0.503, -0.685 3: 0.711, 0.702, -0.031 4: -0.620, 0.275, 0.735 5: -0.173, 0.677, 0.715 6: 0.055, 0.707, 0.705 7: 0.455, 0.565, 0.688 8: 0.721, 0.150, 0.677 9: -0.620, 0.275, 0.734 10: -0.260, 0.709, 0.655 11: 0.327, 0.704, 0.630 12: 0.548, 0.482, 0.683 13: 0.736, 0.288, 0.612 14: -0.680, 0.477, 0.556 15: -0.444, 0.710, 0.546 16: 0.582, 0.640, 0.501 17: 0.732, 0.468, 0.495 18: -0.702, 0.712, 0.031 19: -0.726, 0.477, -0.495 20: 0.687, 0.468, -0.556 21: 0.454, 0.704, -0.546 22: -0.702, 0.712, 0.023 23: -0.661, 0.430, -0.616 24: -0.703, 0.711, -0.024 25: -0.316, 0.709, -0.631 26: 0.270, 0.705, -0.656 27: 0.711, 0.702, -0.039 28: 0.681, 0.288, -0.674 29: -0.703, 0.711, -0.019 30: 0.009, 0.706, -0.708 31: 0.711, 0.702, -0.042 32: 0.676, -0.005, -0.737 33: 100.000, 100.000, 100.000 Could it be that the calculated Philips volume is not being canceled appropriately by the 33: 100,100,100 line? Are there set locations for the dicom files for the calculated volume so I can simply excise them manually if all else fails? As an aside -the dicom file input also results in reduced # of slices when using MRIview3D, but when I convert the dicom series into analyze format I'm able to get volumes 0-33 with all slices showing. Since Analyze format doesn't work with the DTImapping functionality, this is informative but still a dead end for my tensor calculations. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for any assistance -Katherine -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Is there a reference available somewhere? As I understand, this is a non-trivial problem. 2) What do the experts here feel about the feasibility of fiber-tracking in atlas-space? I know that this is traditionally considered undesireable, but do people think that perhaps with these more advanced methods, standard-space tractography could be feasable? 3) Are there any command-line tools available for working with LDDMM transformations in a scriptable, automated manner? It would help our productivity immensely if we could apply Hmaps and Kimaps from the command-line, without clicking on buttons. Being able to combine transformation matrices programmatically would be great as well.

This is because of quality control. We thought it is very important to check each step of image processing and this is the very reason we developed these programs, which are built for visual inspection. The heart of the problem is, it is very difficult to come up with quantitative QC report. We have been investing a lot of effort on the automated pipeline with a good QC report. So far, it has been difficult to get one which is as good as visual inspection. However, we are getting there. I hope we can provide a good automated and quantitative QC for DtiStudio this year and hopefully a first version for MriStudio.

If you type in non-physical number like negative b, I believe (Hangyi please correct me if I'm wrong) DtiStudio use b=1. In your case, b x D = 1.1812. If you use b=1 for all the past data, you can simply divide the number with b=700. This is the case of all the numbers with the diffusion constant unit (mm^2/s) like Eigs, mean diffusivity, trace, etc. I believe the unit-less numbers such as FA is not affected.

If you divide this by 3, it is what people usually call "Mean Diffusivity", or "Average Diffusion Constant". Because there are several nomenclature with inconsistent usage, we decided to use "trace" which has no ambiguity. The mean ADC in the old version of DtiStudio is "mean apparent diffusion constant" which is the mean of all the "apparent (not average) diffusion constants" along various diffusion encoding directions. I strongly recommend to use trace, not the "mean ADC" in the older version.

In-Reply-To: <13931739.916091334671023330.JavaMail.coremail@mailweb> References: <13931739.916091334671023330.JavaMail.coremail@mailweb> Message-ID: Do you mean, you want to align fiber-to-fiber between two brains? If that is the question, no, we don't, but you can do the following. For example, you can do tractography of the corticospinal tract (CST) in two brains. Convert the tract information to a binary masking image, in which pixels that contain the tract are "1" and the rests are "0". >From the two brains, you can obtain two CST 1/0 binary images. You can submit these two images by DiffeoMap for image matching. What will happen then is, these two maps will be perfectly registered. Then you can apply the transformation matrix to real images such as FA, b0, or co-registered T1. However, I think this will register only the pixels that belong to the CST and the rest of the brain is not well registered. You can keep creating tracts like 10 more tracts. Then you will have 10 x 2 binary images from the two brains. You can submit 10-channel LDDMM throuth DiffeoMap or you can combine the 10 binary images by assigning different numbers; the CST is "1", SLF is "2", corpus callosum is "3", etc. Then you can do 1-channel LDDMM. You can add FA map and do 2-channel LDDMM. I thought of this kind of approach before but because the results of tractography is quite noisy, I'm not sure if it improves the registration accuracy....

The "raw" format of the fiber tracking is streamline information. For example, if you get 10 lines, you have 10 streamline information. Each streamline contains information of sequential coordinates. These coordinates use floating point coordinates as you saw. This is why streamline looks much more high resolution than raw images. We artificially increase the resolution to draw the streamlines. FAQ#1 describes how the streamline information is stored. If you store your results as this streamline information, you can later edit the results like removing some lines by the "NOT" operation. The second format is the "image" format. In this format, the streamline information is converted to a binary (1/0) masking image. If your image is 256x256x50, then this binary image also has 256x256x50. In this image, pixels that contain the streamlines get "1" and others get "0". Once the streamlines are converted to this binary image format, you can't edit anymore. I think Hangyi will explain what exactly is 'xyzPtROI'.

I believe Cs is simply lambda3/lambda1, but please check Westin's original paper to make sure.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: It can happen when white matter becomes smaller while FA doesn't change a lot. This would be the most natural interpretation. Also, tractography could be relatively insensitive to decreased FA because tractography tends to extract only the core of the tract with high FA. Also, if there is one area along the tract where a portion of the tract has lower FA, tractography stops when it hits the low FA area due to the FA threshold. This also would lead to smaller tractography with unchanged FA. So, there are several possibilities.
