Fiber Reconstruction Method using Data Acquired by Magnetic Resonance Imaging

This is a technique that allows reconstructing three-dimensional trajectories of axonal fiber bundles in human brain white matter. The technique, called diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is based on magnetic resonance imaging. Specifically, it monitors orientation of water diffusion, which tends to diffuse along axonal tracts. We developed computer programs that can reconstruct the axonal tract by tracing the path of the water diffusion. Description (Set) Proposed Use (Set) Diagnostic radiology. Patent (Set) 6,526,305;
