Key Investigators

• UCLA: Nathan Hageman
• UCLA: Arthur Toga, Ph.D

Objective

We have developed a diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) tractography method based on Navier-Stokes fluid mechanics. The goal of this project is to make our method compatible with NA-MIC ITK-based software infrastructure in order facilitate its dissemination to the scientific community.

Approach, Plan

The details of our method is given in the paper listed in the reference section. Our approach will focus on working with NA-MIC members and collaborators to successfully reimplement our method in a NA-MIC ITK compatible form. given in the refer.... The main challenge to this approach is <foo>.

Our plan for the project week is to first try out <bar>,...
