  1. 1. Anatomical segmentation of the human brain: comparative assessment of two automatic methods

    University essay from

    Author : Carl von Dorrien; [2023-08-22]
    Keywords : Medical physics; MAPER; FreeSurfer; FastSurfer; Automatic brain segmentation; MRI; Deep Neural Network; Brain;

    Abstract : Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a robust and versatile imaging modality and an integral component of a lot of studies, especially when performing quantitative analysis. MRI is the preferred method of imaging the brain because of its excellent soft tissue contrast. READ MORE

  3. 2. Brain morphometry in Parkinson’s disease

    University essay from

    Author : Lönkvist Olivia; [2023-03-02]
    Keywords : Medical physics; Parkinson’s disease; Computational anatomy; Quantitative image analysis;

    Abstract : Abstract Purpose The purpose of this brain morphometry study was to examine the volumes of different regions of the brain by research participants with Parkinson’s disease. Method To carry out the study, MR (magnetic resonance) images from 956 research participants from the Parkinson’s Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI) were used. READ MORE

  4. 3. Image-driven simulation of brain tumors using a reaction-diffusion mathematical model

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Avdelningen för medicinsk teknik

    Author : Kristos Qiqi; [2023]
    Keywords : brain tumor; cancer; mathematical model; simulation; magnetic resonance images; hjärntumör; cancer; matematisk model; simulering; magnetresonanstomografi bilder;

    Abstract : Brain tumors pose a big challenge in the field of neuro-oncology. Gliomas are the largest subgroup. Magnetic resonance imaging is a non-invasive tool for detecting and characterizing these tumors. Mathematical models, such as the reaction-diffusion equation, can be used for understanding the intricate behavior of gliomas. READ MORE

  5. 4. Segmentation of Neuronal Cells Using Simplistic Methods : A Comparison of the Mean Shift Algorithm and Otsu’s Method

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Alex Gunnarsson; Filip Karlsson; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Information regarding specific neuronal characteristics, such as shape and distribution, is essential for quantifying the brain structure and modelling accurate computer simulations. To this end, it is important to perform cell segmentation; to isolate the cells in a given image from the surrounding tissue, so it can be further analysed. READ MORE

  6. 5. Volumetric Image Segmentation of Lizard Brains

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Yulia Dragunova; [2023]
