Tracts through the corpus connecting 2 cortical regions defined by fMRI activation.
ACC to OFC connection
ACC to OFC connection
IFG to Occ connection
Key Investigators
- BWH: Julien de Siebenthal, Sylvain Bouix, Marek Kubicki
Objective
To create an end-to-end analysis pipeline to study white matter anomalies using a stochastic tractography algorithm.
See our Roadmap for more details.
Approach, Plan
Our approach involves the implementation of a stochastic tractography algorithm in python that can be used both within and outside of the slicer framework.
Our plan for the project week is to integrate diffusion weighted imaging preprocessing steps to the pipeline in particular:
- Rician Noise Removal
- EPI distortion correction
- Eddy current correction
