Purpose: To propose a deep learning-based reconstruction framework for ultrafast and robust diffusion tensor imaging and fiber tractography. Methods: We propose SuperDTI to learn the nonlinear relationship between diffusion-weighted images…
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) allows for non-invasive imaging of the local fiber architecture of the human brain at a millimetric scale. Multiple classical approaches have been proposed to detect both single (e.g.,…
Brain metabolites, such as N-acetylaspartate or myo-inositol, are constantly probing their local cellular environment under the effect of diffusion. Diffusion-weighted NMR spectroscopy therefore presents unparalleled potential to yield…
Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) is a relatively modern technique used to study tissue microstructure in a non-invasive way. Non-Gaussian diffusion representation is related to the restricted diffusion and can provide information…
Diffusion MRI offers a unique probe into neural microstructure and connectivity in the developing brain. However, analysis of neonatal brain imaging data is complicated by inevitable subject motion, leading to a series of scattered slices…
Image Quality of MRI brain scans is strongly influenced by within scanner head movements and the resulting image artifacts alter derived measures like brain volume and cortical thickness. Automated image quality assessment is key to…
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) can be used to characterise the microstructure of the nervous tissue, e.g. to delineate brain white matter connections in a non-invasive manner via fibre tracking. Magnetic Resonance…
Mapping white matter tracts is an essential step towards understanding brain function. Diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging (dMRI) is the only noninvasive technique which can detect in vivo anisotropies in the 3-dimensional diffusion of…
Functional MRI (fMRI) and diffusion MRI (dMRI) are non-invasive imaging modalities that allow in-vivo analysis of a patient's brain network (known as a connectome). Use of these technologies has enabled faster and better diagnoses and…
This paper focuses on the uncertainty estimation for white matter lesions (WML) segmentation in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). On one side, voxel-scale segmentation errors cause the erroneous delineation of the lesions; on the other…
Non-invasive measurements of the human brain using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have significantly improved our understanding the brain's network organization by enabling measurement of anatomical connections between brain regions…
Brain structural networks are often represented as discrete adjacency matrices with elements summarizing the connectivity between pairs of regions of interest (ROIs). These ROIs are typically determined a-priori using a brain atlas. The…
Tractography parcellation classifies streamlines reconstructed from diffusion MRI into anatomically defined fiber tracts for clinical and research applications. However, clinical scans often have incomplete fields of view (FOV) where brain…
We study possible relations between the structure of the connectome, white matter connecting different regions of brain, and Alzheimer disease. Regression models in covariates including age, gender and disease status for the extent of white…
Magnetic resonance imaging technique known as DWI (diffusion-weighted imaging) allows measurement of water diffusivity on a pixel basis for evaluating pathology throughout the body and is now routinely incorporated into many body MRI…
Materials under confinement can possess properties that deviate considerably from their bulk counterparts. Indeed, confinement makes all physical properties position-dependent and possibly anisotropic, and characterizing such spatial…
Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging is a noninvasive imaging technique that can indirectly infer the microstructure of tissues and provide metrics which are subject to normal variability across subjects. Potentially abnormal values or…
Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging datasets suffer from low Signal-to-Noise Ratio, especially at high b-values. Acquiring data at high b-values contains relevant information and is now of great interest for microstructural and…
The extraction of fibers from dMRI data typically produces a large number of fibers, it is common to group fibers into bundles. To this end, many specialized distance measures, such as MCP, have been used for fiber similarity. However,…
The characterisation of the brain as a "connectome", in which the connections are represented by correlational values across timeseries and as summary measures derived from graph theory analyses, has been very popular in the last years.…
