White Matter Exploration with Diffusion Tensor Imaging: Fundamentals and Perspectives - A Hands-On Workshop by the National Alliance for Medical Imaging Computing (NA-MIC)
Diffusion Tensor Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DT-MRI) provides a non-invasive window on the complex organization of the brain white matter in-vivo. The technique offers tremendous opportunities for gaining insights into the architecture of major white matter pathways, and DT-MRI findings have the potential to play a critical role in the extraction of meaningful information for diagnosis, prognosis and following of treatment response. The workshop will guide participants through the fundamentals of the acquisition, analysis and interpretation of DT-MRI data. The format will alternate a series of lectures and hands-on sessions with the participants running DT-MRI analysis on their own laptops, to provide a conceptual understanding of the underlying theory of Diffusion Imaging, and a practical experience of extracting relevant clinical information from DT-MRI images. The hands-on sessions will use the 3DSlicer software, an open-source software package for medical image analysis and 3D visualization used in biomedical and clinical research worldwide. The workshop will educate the participants on the fundamentals of DT-MRI data required to make decisions about how to analyze their own data for neuroscience studies.
Next DTI course will be at the SPIE 2012 conference in San Diego, Ca.
