AUTOMATED SURFACE-BASED ANATOMICAL ANALYSIS BASED ON ATLAS-BASED SEGMENTATION OF MEDICAL IMAGING

摘要

A non-invasive imaging system, including: a non-invasive imaging scanner; a signal processing unit in communication with the imaging scanner to receive an imaging signal from a subject under observation; and a data storage unit in communication with the signal processing unit, wherein the data storage unit stores template data corresponding to a tissue region of the subject, and wherein the signal processing unit is adapted to generate a surface map to encode a property of a subvolume of the tissue region using the template data.
