Article Abstract

Current brain white matter fiber tracking techniques show a number of problems, including: generating large proportions of streamlines that do not accurately describe the underlying anatomy; extracting streamlines that are not supported by the underlying diffusion signal; and under-representing some fiber populations, among others. In this paper, we describe a novel autoencoder-based learning method to filter streamlines from diffusion MRI tractography, and hence, to obtain more reliable tractograms. Our method, dubbed FINTA (Filtering in Tractography using Autoencoders) uses raw, unlabeled tractograms to train the autoencoder, and to learn a robust representation of brain streamlines. Such an embedding is then used to filter undesired streamline samples using a nearest neighbor algorithm. Our experiments on both synthetic and in vivo human brain diffusion MRI tractography data obtain accuracy scores exceeding the 90% threshold on the test set. Results reveal that FINTA has a superior filtering performance compared to conventional, anatomy-based methods, and the RecoBundles state-of-the-art method. Additionally, we demonstrate that FINTA can be applied to partial tractograms without requiring changes to the framework. We also show that the proposed method generalizes well across different tracking methods and datasets, and shortens significantly the computation time for large (>1 M streamlines) tractograms. Together, this work brings forward a new deep learning framework in tractography based on autoencoders, which offers a flexible and powerful method for white matter filtering and bundling that could enhance tractometry and connectivity analyses.

Diffusion MRI-driven tractography, a non-invasive technique that reveals how the brain is connected, is widely used in brain lateralization studies. To improve the accuracy of tractography in showing the underlying anatomy of the brain, various tractography filtering methods were applied to reduce false positives. Based on different algorithms, tractography filtering methods are able to identify the fibers most consistent with the original diffusion data while removing fibers that do not align with the original signals, ensuring the tractograms are as biologically accurate as possible.

Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) is the only non-invasive tool for studying white matter tracts and structural connectivity of the brain. These assessments rely heavily on tractography techniques, which reconstruct virtual streamlines representing white matter fibers. Much effort has been devoted to improving tractography methodology for adult brains, while tractography of the fetal brain has been largely neglected.

Bounding tractogram redundancy.

Front Neurosci

July 2024

Department of Biomedical Engineering and Health Systems, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Huddinge, Sweden.

Introduction: In tractography, redundancy poses a significant challenge, often resulting in tractograms that include anatomically implausible streamlines or those that fail to represent the brain's white matter architecture accurately. Current filtering methods aim to refine tractograms by addressing these issues, but they lack a unified measure of redundancy and can be computationally demanding.

Methods: We propose a novel framework to quantify tractogram redundancy based on filtering tractogram subsets without endorsing a specific filtering algorithm.

Purpose: Tractography of the facial nerve based on diffusion MRI is instrumental before surgery for the resection of vestibular schwannoma, but no excellent methods usable for the suppression of motion and image noise have been proposed. The aim of this study was to effectively suppress noise and provide accurate facial nerve reconstruction by extend a fiber trajectory distribution function based on the fourth-order streamline differential equations.

Methods: Preoperative MRI from 33 patients with vestibular schwannoma who underwent surgical resection were utilized in this study.

Short fiber bundle filtering and test-retest reproducibility of the Superficial White Matter.

Front Neurosci

April 2024

Department of Electrical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Universidad de Concepción, Concepción, Chile.

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in studying the Superficial White Matter (SWM). The SWM consists of short association fibers connecting near giry of the cortex, with a complex organization due to their close relationship with the cortical folding patterns. Therefore, their segmentation from dMRI tractography datasets requires dedicated methodologies to identify the main fiber bundle shape and deal with spurious fibers.
