A fast exploratory framework for extracting cardiac noise signals contained in rest-case fMRI images is presented. Highly autocorrelated, independent components of the input time ...
Abstract. In this note, we present a method for flattening anatomical surfaces such as branched vessels and intestinal tracts in an areapreserving way. This method is based on the ...
In this paper we present a method for simulating bleeding in a virtual reality hysteroscopic simulator for surgical training. The simulated bleeding is required to be visually app...
Finding point correspondence in anatomical images is a key step in shape analysis and deformable registration. This paper proposes an automatic correspondence detection algorithm u...
Minimally invasive cardiac surgery is performed on the beating heart, through inter-costal ports. The two major limitations of these procedures are: selecting port locations for op...
Quantitative measurements of changes in evolving brain pathology, such as multiple sclerosis lesions and brain tumors, are important for clinicians to perform pertinent diagnoses a...
In addition to the widely-used Shannon mutual information, generalized information-theoretic similarity metrics have properties that make them conducive to biomedical image registr...
Abstract. When developing statistical models of normal brain perfusion, two questions are of crucial interest: How well does an atlas describe normality and how sensitive is it at ...
This paper describes shape analysis of the caudate nucleus structure in a large schizophrenia study (30 controls, 60 schizophrenics). Although analysis of the caudate has not drawn...
