Sparse solution of fiber orientation distribution function by diffusion decomposition. [PDF]
Fiber orientation is the key information in diffusion tractography. Several deconvolution methods have been proposed to obtain fiber orientations by estimating a fiber orientation distribution function (ODF).

Deep Learning Estimation of Multi-Tissue Constrained Spherical Deconvolution with Limited Single Shell DW-MRI. [PDF]
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) is the only non-invasive approach for estimation of intra-voxel tissue microarchitecture and reconstruction of in vivo neural pathways for the human brain. With improvement in accelerated MRI acquisition technologies, DW-MRI protocols that make use of multiple levels of diffusion sensitization have

In diffusion MRI, spherical deconvolution approaches can estimate local white matter (WM) fiber orientation distributions (FOD) which can be used to produce fiber tractography reconstructions.

Improving tractography in peri-lesional oedema using constrained spherical deconvolution in paediatric neurosurgery patients. [PDF]
Tractography guides neurosurgical planning by balancing lesion resection with functional preservation. A common challenge to this approach is that some lesions have accompanying oedema, which can obscure white matter (WM) fibre orientation through increased isotropic diffusion resulting in diffusion-weighted signal properties resembling grey matter (GM)

Probabilistic fiber tracking using the residual bootstrap with constrained spherical deconvolution. [PDF]
Abstract Constrained spherical deconvolution (CSD) is a new technique that, based on high‐angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI) MR data, estimates the orientation of multiple intravoxel fiber populations within regions of complex white matter architecture, thereby overcoming the limitations of the widely ...

Tracking white-matter brain modifications in chronic non-bothersome acoustic trauma tinnitus
Subjective tinnitus is a symptom characterized by the perception of sound with no external acoustic source, most often accompanied by co-morbidities. To date, the specific role of white matter abnormalities related to tinnitus reaches no consensus in the

Cortical and Subcortical Connections of the Human Claustrum Revealed In Vivo by Constrained Spherical Deconvolution Tractography [PDF]
The claustrum is a thin layer of gray matter that is at the center of an active scientific debate. Recently, Constrained Spherical Deconvolution (CSD) tractography has proved to be an extraordinary tool allowing to track white matter fibers from cortex to cortical and subcortical targets with subvoxel resolution.

Random Action of Compact Lie Groups and Minimax Estimation of a Mean Pattern [PDF]
This paper considers the problem of estimating a mean pattern in the setting of Grenander's pattern theory. Shape variability in a dataset of curves or images is modeled by the random action of elements in a compact Lie group on an infinite dimensional ...
