A SYSTEM AND A METHOD FOR DETERMINING COGNITIVE CAPABILITIES BASED ON BRAIN IMAGE

A method for determining cognitive capabilities of a person includes: receiving a brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) volume that represents a brain; segmenting the brain MRI volume into white matter, grey matter and cerebrospinal fluid; selecting white matter and/or grey matter from the segmente...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method for determining cognitive capabilities of a person includes: receiving a brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) volume that represents a brain; segmenting the brain MRI volume into white matter, grey matter and cerebrospinal fluid; selecting white matter and/or grey matter from the segmented volume; determining a convex hull shape; computing the contour of the white matter and/or the grey matter shape and the contour of the convex hull shape; and computing a gyrification index based on a comparison of voxels that constitute the contour of the white matter and/or the grey matter and the contour of the convex hull.
