Gerig, Guido | Brain volumes in psychotic youth with schizophrenia and mood disorders | Background: We sought to test the hypothesis that deficits in grey matter volume are characteristic of psychotic youth with early-onset schizophrenia-spectrum disorders (EOSS) but not of psychotic youth with early-onset mood disorders (EOMD). Methods: We used magnetic resonance imaging to examine br... | | 2010-01-01 |

Gerig, Guido | Characterizing growth patterns in longitudinal MRI using image contrast | Understanding the growth patterns of the early brain is crucial to the study of neuro-development. In the early stages of brain growth, a rapid sequence of biophysical and chemical processes take place. A crucial component of these processes, known as myelination, consists of the formation of a myel... | | 2014-01-01 |

Gerig, Guido | Computational anatomy to assess longitudinal trajectory of brain growth | This paper addresses the challenging problem of statistics on images by describing average and variability. We describe computational anatomy tools for building 3-D and spatio-temporal 4-D atlases of volumetric image data.

Gerig, Guido | Correspondence evaluation in local shape analysis and structural subdivision | Regional volumetric and local shape analysis has become of increasing interest to the neuroimaging community due to the potential to locate morphological changes. In this paper we compare three common correspondence methods applied to two studies of hippocampal shape in schizophrenia: correspondence... | | 2007-01-01 |

Gerig, Guido | Cortical enhanced tissue segmentation of neonatal brain MR images acquired by a dedicated phased array coil | The acquisition of high quality MR images of neonatal brains is largely hampered by their characteristically small head size and low tissue contrast. As a result, subsequent image processing and analysis, especially for brain tissue segmentation, are often hindered. To overcome this problem, a dedic... | | 2009-01-01 |

Meyer, Miriah Dawn | Design activity framework for visualization design | An important aspect in visualization design is the connection between what a designer does and the decisions the designer makes. Existing design process models, however, do not explicitly link back to models for visualization design decisions. We bridge this gap by introducing the design activity fr... | | 2014-01-01 |

Gerig, Guido | Diffusion tensor imaging: application to the study of the developing brain | Objective: To provide an overview of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and its application to the study of white matter in the developing brain, in both healthy and clinical samples. Method: The development of DTI and its application to brain imaging of white matter tracts is discussed. 48 studies usi... | | 2007-01-01 |

Gerig, Guido | Discordance of prenatal and neonatal brain development in twins | Background: Discordance of birth weight has been observed in twin pairs, though little is known about prenatal and early neonatal discordance of head and brain size, and the role that zygosity and chorionicity play in discordances of early brain development in twins. Aims: To compare prenatal and ne... | | 2009-01-01 |

Anderson, Erik Wesley | Discovering and visualizing patterns in EEG data | Brain activity data is often collected through the use of electroen-cephalography (EEG). In this data acquisition modality, the electric fields generated by neurons are measured at the scalp. Although this technology is capable of measuring activity from a group of neurons, recent efforts provide ev... | | 2013-01-01 |
