Magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging DTI is a new technique that can be used to visualize and measure the diffusion of water in brain tissue; it is particularly useful for evaluating white matter abnormalities. In this paper, they review research studies that have applied DTI for the purpose of understanding...
Powerful computer systems are about to revolutionize several areas of modern medicine. The most famous example is probably neurosurgery, where sophisticated computer algorithms are combined with modern imaging modalities and interventional scanners to enable very reliable surgery in delicate anatomical positions. So far, these high-tech setups are reserved to a...
