Project Description

We recently (MICCAI 2014) developed a leukoaraiosis (small vessel disease) probabilistic co-variation model, which we use to differentiate between small vessel disease and acute or chronic stroke on T2-FLAIR.

Objective

• Here, we wish to investigate the parameters of the model as potential phenotypes against for clinical and genetic analyses.

Approach, Plan

• We will create the phenotype projections for ~80 stroke patients and experiment with correlating the genetic and clinical factors.
