2013 Summer Project Week:Epilepsy Surgery

Key Investigators

• USP - Luiz Murta

Objective

This project will investigate the presence and location of the epileptogenic focus by analyzing patterns of texture in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) after segmentation using anisotropic diffusion filters anomalous and geodesic active contour.

Approach, Plan

Our approach for analyzing diffusion tensors is summarized in the IPMI 2007 reference below. The main challenge to this approach is <foo>.

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

Progress

Methods for segmentation and texture features extraction are written into ITK
