Cortical flattening for Visualization Presentation by Chetan Bhole [4]
Structural 2D slice of brain (MRI) White matter gray matter Or cortex skull • Note On: • Functional imaging • Importance of cortex
Segmentation of the cortex • Normalization • Skull Strip • Segmentation
Cortical flattening • Flatten and unfold the cortex • Use of boundary between white and gray matter • Requirements • Minimal folding • Minimal metric distortion
Cortical flattening: I Find the geodesic distances between points in a cut Minimize Energy fn: J = λdJd + λaJa
Results Map to flat surface Map to spherical surface Inflation: wrt mean curvature Inflation: wrt convexity
Spherical coordinate system • Comparing information across patients
Cortical flattening: II choose points draw mesh adjust distances result map on flat surface Perform Delanauy triangulation
