Objective

Our goal is to measure cortical thickness evolution at two cross-sectional time periods (2 years with follow-up at 4 years) comparing autistic children and controls, which include typical development and developmental delays. We want to be able to make statistical group comparison considering an average cortical thickness map.


Approach, Plan

Our approach is to run FreeSurfer software on several cases. The main challenge we expect is to

Our plan for the project week is to learn on use of FreeSurfer, and use our developped itkEMS tool, to


Progress

This section will get filled out at the end of the Project week.
