Objective
Our goal is to measure cortical thickness evolution at two cross-sectional time periods (2 years with follow-up at 4 years) considering autistic children and controls, which include typical development and developmental delays. We want to be able to create an average cortical thickness map for each population and make statistical group comparison.
Approach, Plan
Our approach is to create an average cortical thickness map for each population and make statistical group comparison.
Our plan for the project week is first to learn how to use FreeSurfer, and then run it on several cases. use our developped itkEMS tool, to
Progress
This section will get filled out at the end of the Project week.
