On early brain development from MRI data
Abstract: The development of ultrafast 2D acquisition sequences has led to significant improvements in the clinical utility of fetal MRI. However, the slice acquisition time is still very critical and has to be as short as possible to reduce the impact of fetal and maternal motion on the exam. Since 2005 there has been a series of techniques coming from computer vision that have been developed to address these limitations in fetal MRI. These motion-correction methods provide a new window into early human brain growth study. I will present in this talk an overview of the current research into fetal brain MRI processing for early brain development studies. I will focus on temporal analysis, and more particularly on cortical folding.
