Case Inventory DTI

The most common task in Diffusion MRI registration is aligning an anatomical reference with the tensor data or fiber-tracts derived from DTI. Because the DTI is tensor data, applying a spatial transform to this image is not trivial. Hence a common approach is to align the anatomical reference (such as a T1 MRI) to the DTI image and thus avoid having to resample the tensor. This, however, preserves the strong distortions often present in the DTI image and makes anatomical referencing difficult.

• Case 03: DWI alignment: align DTI volume with structural reference scan (T2)
• Case 27: DTI baseline to FLAIR & T1, large pathol.
• Case 29: DTI to T1 / Alignment of DTI and fMRI scan to structural reference T1 for surgical planning (tumor resection)
