2009 Winter Project Week:LocalCorticalThicknessPipeline

Return to Project Week Main Page

Regional cortical thickness analysis on white matter surface

Regional cortical thickness analysis on grey matter surface

Key Investigators

• UNC: Clement Vachet, Martin Styner, Heather Cody Hazlett, Marc Niethammer
• GE: Jim Miller

Objective

We are developing an end-to-end application within Slicer3 allowing individual and group analysis of local cortical thickness.

Such a workflow applied to the young brain (2-4 years old) is our goal in order to start a longitudinal study of early brain development in autism (UNC DBP).

See our Roadmap for more details.

Approach, Plan

Our plan for the project week is to finish the pipeline and perform the analysis on a small dataset.
