PURPOSE: This study aimed to subtype multiple sclerosis (MS) patients using unsupervised machine learning on white matter (WM) fiber tracts and investigate the implications for cognitive function and disability outcomes.
We propose a geometric deep-learning-based framework, TractGeoNet, for performing regression using diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) tractography and associated pointwise tissue microstructure measurements. By employing a point cloud repres...
White matter pathways, typically studied with diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), have been implicated in the neurobiology of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). However, due to limited sample sizes and the predominance of single-site studies, the gener...
This study created an image-to-image translation model that synthesizes diffusion tensor images (DTI) from conventional diffusion weighted images, and validated the similarities between the original and synthetic DTI. Thirty-two healthy volunteers we...
BACKGROUND: Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) before endovascular treatment (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke might induce intracerebral hemorrhages which could negatively affect patient outcomes. Measuring white matter lesions size using deep learning (D...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Reliable detection of white matter hyperintensities (WMH) is crucial for studying the impact of diffuse white-matter pathology on brain health and monitoring changes in WMH load over time. However, manual annotation of 3D h...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: This study employed tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS) to investigate abnormalities in the white matter microstructure among children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Additionally, an eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoos...

BACKGROUND: White matter hyperintensities (WMHs) are widely-seen in the aging population, which are associated with cerebrovascular risk factors and age-related cognitive decline. At present, structural atrophy and functional alterations coexisted wi...
An important step in the analysis of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data for neuroimaging is the automated segmentation of white matter hyperintensities (WMHs). Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recovery (FLAIR-weighted) is an MRI contrast that is particu...
