Learning Objectives:

Through the exemplar case of reconstructing the inferior occipito-frontal fasciculus using Diffusion Tensor Imaging tractography, we’ll demonstrate 1) the teaching methodology that we have been developing based on the three identified requirements for translating Diffusion Tensor Imaging techniques to new skills of clinical researchers; 2)the open-source software platform that we use to provide hands-on training for the extraction of white matter pathways from DT-MRI images; 3)the variety of challenges posed by technology transfer from the biomedical image computing community to the next generation of physicians and clinical researchers.
