Statistical shape analysis has become of increasing interest to the neuroimaging community due to its potential to precisely locate morphological changes and thus potentially discr...
A novel brain shift tracking protocol is introduced in this paper which utilizes laser range scan (LRS) data and 2D deformable image registration. This protocol builds on previous ...

Virtual reality based surgical simulators offer the possibility to provide training on a wide range of findings of different pathologies. Current research aims at a high fidelity h...
Abstract. We perform discriminative analysis of brain structures using morphometric information. Spherical harmonics technique and point distribution model are used for shape descr...
