Objective

The objective of this project is to use the Stochastic Tractography Filter in Slicer3 in a group comparison of the arcuate fasciculus.

Approach, Plan

The Stochastic Tractography Filter has been integrated into Slicer3. Our approach is to use ROIs automatically generated from the Freesurfer reconstruction to generate connectivity maps of the arcuate fasciculus in matched groups of healthy controls and chronic schizophrenic patients. We will investigate how best to measure the diffusion properties of the tracts generated by this filter and how to facilitate a group comparison.
