76 Gerig, GuidoGeodesic shape regression in the framework of currentsShape regression is emerging as an important tool for the statistical analysis of time dependent shapes. In this paper, we develop a new generative model which describes shape change over time, by extending simple linear regression to the space of shapes represented as currents in the large deformat...2013-01-01
77 Gerig, GuidoGeodesic image regression with a sparse parameterization of diffeomorphismsImage regression allows for time-discrete imaging data to be modeled continuously, and is a crucial tool for conducting statistical analysis on longitudinal images. Geodesic models are particularly well suited for statistical analysis, as image evolution is fully characterized by a baseline image an...2013-01-01
78 Gerig, Guido3D of brain shape and volume after cranial vault remodeling surgery for craniosynostosis correction in infantsThe skull of young children is made up of bony plates that enable growth. Craniosynostosis is a birth defect that causes one or more sutures on an infant's skull to close prematurely. Corrective surgery focuses on cranial and orbital rim shaping to return the skull to a more normal shape. Functional...2013-01-01
79 Gerig, GuidoWhite matter microstructure and atypical visual orienting in 7 month-olds at risk for autismObjective: The authors sought to determine whether specific patterns of oculo-motor functioning and visual orientingcharacterize 7-month-old infants who later meet criteria for an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and to identify the neural correlates of these behaviors. Method:Data were collected from...2013-01-01
80 Gerig, GuidoDTI quality control assessment via error estimation from monte carlo simulationsDiffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) is currently the state of the art method for characterizing the microscopic tissue structure of white matter in normal or diseased brain in vivo. DTI is estimated from a series of Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) volumes. DWIs suffer from a number of artifacts which ma...2013-01-01
81 Gerig, GuidoSpatiotemporal modeling of distribution-valued data applied to DTI tract evolution in infant neurodevelopmentThis paper proposes a novel method that extends spatiotemporal growth modeling to distribution-valued data. The method relaxes assumptions on the underlying noise models by considering the data to be represented by the complete probability distributions rather than a representative, single-valued su...2013-01-01
82 Gerig, GuidoModeling 4D changes in pathological anatomy using domain adaptation: analysis of TBI imaging using a tumor databaseAnalysis of 4D medical images presenting pathology (i.e., lesions) is significantly challenging due to the presence of complex changes over time. Image analysis methods for 4D images with lesions need to account for changes in brain structures due to deformation, as well as the formation and deletio...2013-01-01
83 Gerig, GuidoModeling longitudinal MRI changes in populations using a localized, information-theoretic measure of contrastLongitudinal MR imaging during early brain development provides important information about growth patterns and the development of neurological disorders. We propose a new framework for studying brain growth patterns within and across populations based on MRI contrast changes, measured at each time ...2013-01-01
84 Kuhlman, BrianPHD EntrepreneurThe idea for this speech began when my friends and family started asking what I would do after graduating with my PhD in psychology. Folks tended to get a bit confused when I replied that my plan is to start a business. You don't need a PhD to do that! It's true. The path leading from PhD to Entrepr...entrepreneur; PhD; doctoral; industry; academia2013-05-03
85 Jaskowski, Troy D.Neuronal uptake of anti-Hu antibody, but not anti-Ri antibody, leads to cell death in brain slice culturesBackground: Anti-Hu and anti-Ri antibodies are paraneoplastic immunoglobulin (Ig)G autoantibodies which recognize cytoplasmic and nuclear antigens present in all neurons. Although both antibodies produce similar immunohistological labeling, they recognize different neuronal proteins. Both antibodies...2014-01-01
86 Macleod, Robert S.Sensitivity of epicardial electrical markers to acute ischemia detectionIntroduction: We hypothesize that electrocardiographic measurements from the intramyocardial space contain more sensitive markers of ischemia than those detectable on the epicardium. The goal of this study was to evaluate different electrical markers for their potential to detect the earliest phases...2014-01-01
87 Gerig, GuidoSemi-automated application for kidney motion correction and filtration analysis in MR renographyAltered renal function commonly affects patients with cirrhosis, a consequence of chronic liver disease. From lowdose contrast material-enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) renography, we can estimate the Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR), an important parameter to assess renal function. Two-dimensional ...2014-01-01
88 Gerig, GuidoUNC-Utah NA-MIC framework for DTI fiber tract analysisDiffusion tensor imaging has become an important modality in field of neuroimaging to capture changes in micro-organization and to assess white matter integrity or development While there exists a number of tractography toolsets, these usually lack tools for preprocessing or to analyze diffusion pro...2014-01-01
89 Dannhauer, MoritzVisualizing simulated electrical fields from electroencephalography and transcranial electric brain stimulation: a comparative evaluationElectrical activity of neuronal populations is a crucial aspect of brain activity. This activity is not measured directly but recorded as electrical potential changes using head surface electrodes (electroencephalogram - EEG). Head surface electrodes can also be deployed to inject electrical current...2014-01-01
90 Gur, YanivGeneralized hardi invariants by method of tensor contractionWe propose a 3D object recognition technique to construct rotation invariant feature vectors for high angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI). This method uses the spherical harmonics (SH) expansion and is based on generating rank-1 contravariant tensors using the SH coefficients, and contracti...2014-01-01
91 Gerig, GuidoA joint framework for 4D segmentation and estimation of smooth temporal appearance changesMedical imaging studies increasingly use longitudinal images of individual subjects in order to follow-up changes due to development, degeneration, disease progression or efficacy of therapeutic intervention. Repeated image data of individuals are highly correlated, and the strong causality of infor...2014-01-01
92 Maas, SteveAccuracy and feasibility of dual fluoroscopy and model-based tracking to quantify in vivo hip kinematics during clinical examsAccurate measurements of in-vivo hip kinematics may elucidate the mechanisms responsible for impaired function and chondrolabral damage in hips with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI).

93 Gerig, GuidoCharacterizing growth patterns in longitudinal MRI using image contrastUnderstanding 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
94 Gerig, GuidoA preliminary study on the effect of motion correction on HARDI reconstructionPost-acquisition motion correction is widely performed in diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) to guarantee voxel-wise correspondence between DWIs. Whereas this is primarily motivated to save as many scans as possible if corrupted by motion, users do not fully understand the consequences of different ty...2014-01-01

96 Meyer, Miriah DawnDesign activity framework for visualization designAn 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
