Shaping up in structural neuroimaging

Abstract

Structural neuroimaging studies provide insight into development and diseases of the human brain. Historically, neuroimaging research has focussed on the volume or surface area of the brain and its components. Now, it is becoming clear that shape is also important. This poster discusses the importance of shape analysis in neuroimaging. It outlines our recent work in drawing across disciplinary boundaries to benchmark and expand a leading-edge shape analysis technique, elliptical Fourier analysis. Show more
