Automatic tractography and segmentation using finsler geometry based on higher-order tensor fields.

Background And Objective: We focus on three-dimensional higher-order tensorial (HOT) images using Finsler geometry. In biomedical image analysis, these images are widely used, and they are based on the diffusion profiles inside the voxels. The diffusion information is stored in the so-called diffusion tensor D.

Role of Neuroimaging in COVID 19 Infection-A Retrospective Study.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), a member of the family of coronaviruses, induces COVID-19 disease which is predominantly a respiratory illness. Several authors have reported neurological manifestations such as acute venous and arterial strokes and rarely acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, hemorrhagic posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome, and acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy by studying magnetic resonance imaging of brain parenchymal signal abnormalities in patients with COVID-19. Owing to sparsity of literature on extrapulmonary manifestation of COVID, it is imperative to study the mechanism of neuronal invasion and manifestations of COVID-19.

Geodesic fiber tracking in white matter using activation function.

Background And Objective: The geodesic ray-tracing method has shown its effectiveness for the reconstruction of fibers in white matter structure. Based on reasonable metrics on the spaces of the diffusion tensors, it can provide multiple solutions and get robust to noise and curvatures of fibers. The choice of the metric on the spaces of diffusion tensors has a significant impact on the outcome of this method.
