Tractography algorithms are used extensively to delineate white matter structures, by operating on the voxel-wise information generated through the application of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) or other models to diffusion weighted (DW)…
The Federal Interagency Traumatic Brain Injury Research (FITBIR) database is a centralized data repository for traumatic brain injury (TBI) research. It includes over 45,529 magnetic resonance images (MRI) from 6,211 subjects (9,229 imaging…
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is caused by a sudden trauma to the head that may result in hematomas and contusions and can lead to stroke or chronic disability. An accurate quantification of the lesion volumes and their locations is…
Post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE) is a life-long complication of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and is a major public health problem that has an estimated incidence that ranges from 2%-50%, depending on the severity of the TBI. Currently, the…
Aim: This in silico study sought to identify specific biomarkers for mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) through the analysis of publicly available gene and miRNA databases, hypothesizing their influence on neuronal structure, axonal…
Aperiodic activity is a physiologically distinct component of the electrophysiological power spectrum. It is suggested to reflect the balance of excitation and inhibition in the brain, within selected frequency bands. However, the impact of…
Diffusion MRI (dMRI) streamline tractography, the gold standard for in vivo estimation of brain white matter (WM) pathways, has long been considered indicative of macroscopic relationships with WM microstructure. However, recent advances in…
While EEG features differentiate Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) from healthy controls (HC), their clinical utility as biomarkers depends on a monotonic trajectory across the disease spectrum, from the acute (AC) phase to the maintenance…
To minimize functional morbidity associated with brain surgery, new preventive approaches (also referred to as "prehabilitation") by using motor-imagery-based computer interfaces (MI-BCIs) can be utilized. To achieve successful MI-BCI…
Neocortical epilepsy surgery fails to achieve post-operative seizure freedom in 30-40% of cases. It is not fully understood why surgery in some patients is unsuccessful. Comparing interictal MEG bandpower from patients to normative maps,…
Magnetoencephalography (MEG) enables the study of brain activity by recording the magnetic fields generated by neural currents and has become an important technique for neuroscientists in research and clinical settings. Unlike the…
Most brain disorders are very heterogeneous in terms of their underlying biology and developing analysis methods to model such heterogeneity is a major challenge. A promising approach is to use probabilistic regression methods to estimate…
Neuroimaging measures of the brain's white matter connections can enable the prediction of non-imaging phenotypes, such as demographic and cognitive measures. Existing works have investigated traditional microstructure and connectivity…
We characterize the amplitude statistics of intraoperative microelectrode recordings (MERs) obtained during deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery in 46 patients with Parkinson's disease, using 184 recordings equally balanced between inside…
Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI) is a significant public health problem. The most troubling symptoms after mTBI are cognitive complaints. Studies show measurable differences between patients with mTBI and healthy controls with respect to…
Tensor-based morphometry (TBM) aims at showing local differences in brain volumes with respect to a common template. TBM images are smooth but they exhibit (especially in diseased groups) higher values in some brain regions called lateral…
Mild Traumatic Brain Injuries (mTBI) are caused by violent head motions or impacts. Most mTBI prevention strategies explicitly or implicitly rely on a "brain injury criterion". A brain injury criterion takes some descriptor of the head's…
Motor imagery based brain-computer interfaces (MI-BCIs) allow the control of devices and communication by imagining different muscle movements. However, most studies have reported a problem of "BCI-illiteracy" that does not have enough…
Increased variability in performance has been associated with the emergence of several neurological and psychiatric pathologies. However, whether and how consistency of neuronal activity may also be indicative of an underlying pathology is…
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) combined with EEG recordings (TMS-EEG) has shown great potential in the study of the brain and in particular of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). In this study, we propose an automatic method of determining…
