  1. WMH Replacement and Image Warping Evan Fletcher

  2. Purpose of method • Use warping to compile statistical profiles of WMH distributions

  3. Goal • Prevent overestimation of ventricles during warping • Obtain warped image with WMH voxels outside template ventricles (not inside!)

  4. Overview of method • Warp Template to T1 image • Inverse transform WMH distribution masks onto template • Create frequency maps on template • Compare with FA images where appropriate

  5. Steps in the Method • Produce WMH mask by filtering FLAIR image • Linearly align FLAIR to T1 subject image • Readjust WMH intensities in T1 to minimize warping errors • Warp T1 and Template

  6. WMT alignment & tissue replacement

  7. Accuracy Issues • Low resolution of FLAIR images causes inaccuracies when reslicing to T1 space. • Partially address these by thresholding resliced image • WMH voxels appear dark in T1 image. Estimate replacement value by local mean of white intensity

  8. Composite maps from warpingAccurate placement of periventricular lesions warped onto template3D view: ventricles Slice view
