| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, several topics regarding diffusion MRI have been studied including inference of axon diameter or diffusional kurtosis along the radial orientation of fibers as local information of brain white matter fiber tracts, that is global information. Based on a novel approach of Q-space interpolation and reconstruction by using radial basis functions, methodology for extraction of multi-scale information (from global tract structure to local information such as axon diameter) was achieved. It did not reach to creation of completely new diagnostic information, but several successful results in this project implied that extension of this study would develop to such contribution to clinical information processing.
