Methods for optimizing the planning and placement of probes in the brain via multimodal 3D analyses of cerebral anatomy

A method includes obtaining a first imaging scan and a second imaging scan of a single subject brain. The first imaging scan is converted to a first dataset, and the second imaging scan is converted to a second dataset. A sequence-adaptive multimodal segmentation algorithm is applied to the first da...

Zusammenfassung:A method includes obtaining a first imaging scan and a second imaging scan of a single subject brain. The first imaging scan is converted to a first dataset, and the second imaging scan is converted to a second dataset. A sequence-adaptive multimodal segmentation algorithm is applied to the first dataset and the second dataset. The sequence-adaptive multimodal segmentation algorithm performs automatic intensity-based tissue classification to generate a first labelled dataset and a second labeled dataset. The first labeled dataset and the second labeled dataset are automatically co-registered to each other to generate a transformation matrix based on the first labeled dataset and the second labeled dataset. The transformation matrix is applied to align the first dataset and the second dataset.
