Overview Neurosurgery: Alex Golby, Sandy Wells, CF Westin Prostate: Clare Tempany, Noby Hata, Steve Haker Programmatic framework: NAC Ron Kikinis, BIRN: Steve Pieper, IGT: Clare Tempany, Amigo: Randy Ellis
Schedule • Neurosurgery • Prostate • NCRR portfolio • Discussion
Neuroimage Analysis Center: NAC • Biotechnology resource center • Year 08 started on 8/1/2005 • Algorithm development and software tools for basic and clinical neuroscience • Cores: White Matter Architecture from DT-MRI, Clinical Computational Anatomy, Developmental Neuroinformatics, fMRI Informatics, Visualization • Collaborations: Neurosurgery, Neurologic Imaging, Psychiatry
Developmental Neuroanatomy fMRI Informatics WM Architecture from DT-MRI BIRN Projects Clinical Computational Anatomy Visualization Te c h n o l o g i e s Registration Segmentation Visualization Modeling Variability Modeling Anatomy Modeling Biomechanics Filtering Systems Engineering Matrix Organization
Interactions between NA-MIC, NAC, BIRN, IGT BIRN Focus: infrastructure, data, data distribution, computing e.g. Provides shared image databases and high speed network/computing for NA-MIC & NAC NA-MIC Focus: algorithms, engineering,general software tools e.g. Analysis of tensor and non-tensor diffusion data at three algorithm groups (UNC, Utah, MGH) , hosted on BIRN servers from four clinical sites (Dartmouth, Harvard, UCI, U of Toronto) National Level Science National Level Outreach Data Requirements,testing, tools Data repositories and access Advances in medical image computing IGT Focus: guided therapies, ilinical integration e.g. Guiding neurosurgery to minimize white matter damage NAC Focus: specific applications, custom software tools e.g. Tensor analysis for pioneering diffusion technology from BWH Local Level Science National Level Outreach
NAC / BIRN / NA-MIC / IGT Interactions • NAC • Neuroimaging Science that Leverages Unique Abilities of BWH and Close Collaborators • Widely Distributed and Disseminated • BIRN • National Data, Networking, and Computation Infrastructure • Adapt and Apply Advanced Tools to Biomedical Problems through GCRC and other Clinical Partners • NA-MIC • National Software Methodology and Novel Algorithms Drawing on Wide Range of Research Institutions • Establish Best Practices for Biomedical Application Software • IGT • Leading Computation, Imaging, and Therapeutic Research in Closely Coupled Laboratory • Leverage NAC, BIRN, and NA-MIC for Clinical Application
