DTI Meeting Minutes: 3-29-06

New Masking Method

• Raul finished creating a new method for masking (see in slicer2-nightly); the mask is created during the conversion of the DWI volume, and lets you set a parameter to control how aggressive the mask is, and whether or not to remove islands within the brain (e.g., ventricles).

DTMRI Scalar Maps

• L1[xyz] have been added to the Scalar map creation menu (now as "MaxEigenvalueProjection[xyz]"

NRRD Volumes

• In addition to the DWI nrrd volume, there should be a separate baseline nrrd and a movement correction (FIL) nrrd. If anyone needs other separate volumes, they should let Sylvain know asap.

Tensor estimation

• Still not settled regarding negative eigenvalues; this will be addressed at the LMI meeting
