CCB SIG: Pipeline Neuroimaging Solutions (SIG-PNS) - Minimum Distance Template (MDT) Atlasing Pipeline (October 16, 2009; 2:30 PM, DIVE)

Overview

This demo will present the redesigned automated Pipeline workflow for constructing the Minimum Distance Template (MDT) atlas for a given population, based on one specific image modality (e.g., sMRI). There will be two specific validation examples based on 100+ ICBM subjects:

• Quantitative: The ICBM data will be registered to the MDT, NRU and ICBM 462 atlases and mean displacement stats across all subjects will be reported for each voxel. The distributions of these mean displacement magnitudes for all 3 atlases will also be shown.
• Qualitative (visual): The resulting MDT atlas will be visually compared to the ICBM 462 atlas and the Danish NRU atlas constructed of the same 100+ subjects.
