  17. Collaborations and Progress • Shape Analysis with UNC Group: Martin Styner, Guido Gerig • Hippocampal Shape - Dartmouth Data: SPHARM Left Mean Right Mean Overall Mean Skeleton-based subdivision http://www.na-mic.org/Wiki/index.php/Progress_Report:Shape_Analysis National Alliance for Medical Image Computing http://na-mic.org

  18. Collaborations and Progress • fMRI in Slicer – fMRIEngine - Wendy Plesniak and Haiying Liu • Met Dec. 14th, 2005 to discuss progress and future improvements to be made • Have supplied motor data from two controls to test results from module and compare with results from SPM2 • fMRI tasks – Brigham group • Porting of our tasks to BWH • Meeting with Marek Kubicki on Dec. 20th, 2005 to demonstrate our tasks and how we utilize them • Training session at BWH • Tara McHugh visited to get in depth training in Slicer for tracing structures – Dec. 1st, 2005 National Alliance for Medical Image Computing http://na-mic.org

  19. Collaborations and Progress • Working with Steve Pieper to test 64-bit Linux version of Slicer • Worked with Steve Pieper, Gordon Kindlmann, Xiaodong Tao, and Josh Snyder to convert Dartmouth DTI data to nrrd format and solve lingering orientation issues • DTI Path of Interest – MGH – David Tuch and Josh Snyder • Dartmouth request for tools to help relate DTI fiber tract pathways to connections in fMRI identified circuits • Collaboration to implement DTI Path of Interest Program at Dartmouth site • Successful initial results on NAMIC01 healthy control by both Josh Snyder at MGH and John West at Dartmouth • Plans: integrate functional ROIs derived from fMRI tasks National Alliance for Medical Image Computing http://na-mic.org

  20. DTI Path of Interest – Initial Results • Collaboration with David Tuch & Josh Snyder (MGH) • Description – program finds the optimal path between two or more ROIs using probability statistics • Implementation • C-code, Matlab and FSL scripts to generate optimal path • Slicer for visualization and tracing of input ROIs • Full implementation in Slicer as module is a future project • Initial results from NAMIC01 healthy control National Alliance for Medical Image Computing http://na-mic.org

  21. DTI Path of Interest – Initial Results Hippocampal ROI to Ventral Prefrontal ROI Uncinate Fasciculus National Alliance for Medical Image Computing http://na-mic.org

  22. DTI Path of Interest – Initial Results Receptive Speech Area ROI to Expressive Speech Area ROI Arcuate Fasciculus National Alliance for Medical Image Computing http://na-mic.org
