METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ATLAS-ASSISTED INTERPRETATION OF MAGNETIC RESONANCE DIFFUSION AND PREFUSION IMAGES

摘要

The present invention discloses a method for registering a measured MRI volume image with appropriate anatomical and blood supply territory Atlases to enable Atlas information to be mapped onto the measured MRI volume image. The disclosed arrangements provide an efficient method for mapping brain Atlas information (including gross anatomy and blood supply territories) into magnetic resonance perfusion and diffusion images.
