On the cortical connectivity in the macaque brain: A comparison of diffusion tractography and histological tracing data

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2020
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) tractography is a non-invasive tool to probe neural connections and the structure of the white matter.

Novel planning pipeline utilizing the Surgical Theater system for pediatric epilepsy surgery

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Advances in the analysis and collation of radiographic datasets have enhanced presurgical planning for various neurosurgical procedures, including clipping of cerebral aneurysms, surgical resection of tumors, and arteriovenous malformation management.

Fiber tractography using machine learning [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2017
AbstractWe present a fiber tractography approach based on a random forest classification and voting process, guiding each step of the streamline progression by directly processing raw diffusion-weighted signal intensities. For comparison to the state-of-the-art, i.e. tractography pipelines that rely on mathematical modeling, we performed a quantitative

Expanding the scope of pediatric epilepsy surgery: Access, indications, and outcomes in a modern cohort

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Expanded indications, diagnostic tools, and treatment options have transformed the landscape of modern pediatric epilepsy surgery. Published real‐world experiences from large surgical cohorts are still needed. To close this gap, we evaluated access, indications, treatment, and outcomes in a contemporary pediatric epilepsy surgery ...

Discordance of Dopaminergic Dysfunction and Subcortical Atrophy by α‐Synuclein Status in Sporadic and Genetic Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by predominantly neuronal α‐synuclein pathology and dopaminergic dysfunction. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) seeding amplification assays (SAA) detect α‐synuclein aggregates in vivo, but not all patients with PD have a positive SAA.

Evaluating 35 Methods to Generate Structural Connectomes Using Pairwise Classification

open access: yes, 2017
There is no consensus on how to construct structural brain networks from diffusion MRI. How variations in pre-processing steps affect network reliability and its ability to distinguish subjects remains opaque.

Patient‐Reported Feedback Suggests an Alternative Sweet Spot for Deep Brain Stimulation Programming in Essential Tremor

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
(1) To sample subjective patient rating using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), random stimulation parameters were presented to the study subjects. (2) Next, corresponding volumes of tissue activated (VTA) were generated and paired with VAS values.

Speech and Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease, Essential Tremor, and Dystonia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐analysis

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Deep brain stimulation (DBS) effectively treats motor symptoms in movement disorders but often compromises speech through incompletely defined mechanisms. We conducted a PROSPERO‐registered systematic review and meta‐analysis of publications through August 2024 (CRD42024527738).

Nonlinear tube-fitting for the analysis of anatomical and functional structures

open access: yes, 2011
We are concerned with the estimation of the exterior surface and interior summaries of tube-shaped anatomical structures. This interest is motivated by two distinct scientific goals, one dealing with the distribution of HIV microbicide in the colon and ...
