A diffusion MRI tractography atlas for concurrent white matter mapping across Eastern and Western populations

no code implementations6 Apr 2024 Yijie Li, Wei zhang, Ye Wu, Li Yin, Ce Zhu, Yuqian Chen, Suheyla Cetin-Karayumak, Kang Ik K Cho, Leo R. Zekelman, Jarrett Rushmore, Yogesh Rathi, Nikos Makris, Lauren J. O'Donnell, Fan Zhang

However, a comprehensive investigation into WM fiber tracts between Eastern and Western populations is challenged due to the lack of a cross-population WM atlas and the large site-specific variability of dMRI data.

A Novel Deep Clustering Framework for Fine-Scale Parcellation of Amygdala Using dMRI Tractography

no code implementations25 Nov 2023 Haolin He, Ce Zhu, Le Zhang, Yipeng Liu, Xiao Xu, Yuqian Chen, Leo Zekelman, Jarrett Rushmore, Yogesh Rathi, Nikos Makris, Lauren J. O'Donnell, Fan Zhang

The amygdala plays a vital role in emotional processing and exhibits structural diversity that necessitates fine-scale parcellation for a comprehensive understanding of its anatomico-functional correlations.

TractCloud: Registration-free tractography parcellation with a novel local-global streamline point cloud representation

no code implementations18 Jul 2023 Tengfei Xue, Yuqian Chen, Chaoyi Zhang, Alexandra J. Golby, Nikos Makris, Yogesh Rathi, Weidong Cai, Fan Zhang, Lauren J. O'Donnell

TractCloud achieves efficient and consistent whole-brain white matter parcellation across the lifespan (from neonates to elderly subjects, including brain tumor patients) without the need for registration.

TractGeoNet: A geometric deep learning framework for pointwise analysis of tract microstructure to predict language assessment performance

no code implementations8 Jul 2023 Yuqian Chen, Leo R. Zekelman, Chaoyi Zhang, Tengfei Xue, Yang song, Nikos Makris, Yogesh Rathi, Alexandra J. Golby, Weidong Cai, Fan Zhang, Lauren J. O'Donnell

We evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method by predicting individual performance on two neuropsychological assessments of language using a dataset of 20 association white matter fiber tracts from 806 subjects from the Human Connectome Project.

White Matter Tracts are Point Clouds: Neuropsychological Score Prediction and Critical Region Localization via Geometric Deep Learning

no code implementations6 Jul 2022 Yuqian Chen, Fan Zhang, Chaoyi Zhang, Tengfei Xue, Leo R. Zekelman, Jianzhong He, Yang song, Nikos Makris, Yogesh Rathi, Alexandra J. Golby, Weidong Cai, Lauren J. O'Donnell

In this paper, we propose a deep-learning-based framework for neuropsychological score prediction using microstructure measurements estimated from diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) tractography, focusing on predicting performance on a receptive vocabulary assessment task based on a critical fiber tract for language, the arcuate fasciculus (AF).

Deep fiber clustering: Anatomically informed fiber clustering with self-supervised deep learning for fast and effective tractography parcellation

1 code implementation2 May 2022 Yuqian Chen, Chaoyi Zhang, Tengfei Xue, Yang song, Nikos Makris, Yogesh Rathi, Weidong Cai, Fan Zhang, Lauren J. O'Donnell

In this work, we propose a novel deep learning framework for white matter fiber clustering, Deep Fiber Clustering (DFC), which solves the unsupervised clustering problem as a self-supervised learning task with a domain-specific pretext task to predict pairwise fiber distances.

SupWMA: Consistent and Efficient Tractography Parcellation of Superficial White Matter with Deep Learning

1 code implementation29 Jan 2022 Tengfei Xue, Fan Zhang, Chaoyi Zhang, Yuqian Chen, Yang song, Nikos Makris, Yogesh Rathi, Weidong Cai, Lauren J. O'Donnell

Most parcellation methods focus on the deep white matter (DWM), while fewer methods address the superficial white matter (SWM) due to its complexity.
