-
Tutorial video:
During practicum on Friday:
Diffusion MRI analysis methods
Differential tractography demonstration
Flowchart
Hands-On: Patients with spinocerebellar ataxia
Longitudinal comparison
- Download two scan session data of sub-SCA202 at the SCA2 Diffusion Tensor Imaging study
- Create two SRC files
- Construct FIB files
- Export NQA from the follow-up scan
- Open the FIB file of the baseline and load the NQA with registration.
- Differential fiber tracking to show the change.
Testing the Results
Practicum assignment: Cross-sectional comparison using Differential tractography
- Create a connectometry database using control data at the SCA2 Diffusion Tensor Imaging study
- Generate a subject-matched NQA map at [Step C2a: Modify a Connectometry Database]
- Documentation
- Subjects demographics: participants.tsv (need to be modified to keep only values)
- Open the baseline FIB file of the patient #2 and load the subject-matched NQA using [Slice][Insert MNI image]
- Differential fiber tracking to show the change.
