Cerebellum Parcellation with Convolutional Neural Networks
This work originally appeared at Proceedings of SPIE Medical Imaging (SPIE-MI 2019), San Diego, CA, February 16 - 21, 2019. It can be downloaded as a Singularity image from Cerebellar CNN Segmentation Code.
What the Singularity image can do
The Singularity performs the following steps:
- ROBEX is used to estimate a brain mask. This mask is then smoothed to generate a brain weight image.
- N4 from ANTs is used to perform the bias field correction. The bias field is estimated using the weight image calculated above.
- The images are rigidly registered to the ICBM2009c nonlinear symmetric template using the ANTs package. The first MPRAGE image from the longitudinal series of a subject is registered to this template and other images with different contrasts/from the following sessions are registered to the first MPRAGE image.
- The cerebellum of an MNI-registered MPRAGE image is parcellated using the method described in "Shuo Han, et al., Cerebellum parcellation with convolutional neural networks, SPIE 2019 Medical Imaging Image Processing".
- Removing the neck should improve the results, such as using `robustfov` from fsl, but it is not done in this singularity image.
- (OPTIONAL) Generate a HTML report file. To generate the report, the images are converted to .png files which could occupy a large hard disk space.
- GNU Parallel is used to run jobs in parallel.
