There is increasing interest in improving understanding of the timing and nature of early neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and developing methods to measure this in vivo. Autosomal dominant familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD) provides the opportunity for investigation of presymptomatic change. We assessed early microstructural breakdown of cortical grey matter in FAD with diffusion-weighted MRI.

Open source software suite for processing and analyzing human brain MRI images. Used for reconstruction of brain cortical surface from structural MRI data, and overlay of functional MRI data onto reconstructed surface. Contains automatic structural imaging stream for processing cross sectional and longitudinal data. Provides anatomical analysis tools, including: representation of cortical surface between white and gray matter, representation of the pial surface, segmentation of white matter from rest of brain, skull stripping, B1 bias field correction, nonlinear registration of cortical surface of individual with stereotaxic atlas, labeling of regions of cortical surface, statistical analysis of group morphometry differences, and labeling of subcortical brain structures.Operating System: Linux, macOS.
View all literature mentionsSoftware tools for global and local image registration. The algorithm used for global registration is based on a block matching approach enabling robust registration (outliers rejection). The local registration implementation uses a cubic B-Spline parametrisation (Free-Form Deformation). All registration algorithms are based on symmetric approaches where forward and backward transformations can be optimised concurrently. NiftyReg has been implemented for both CPU and GPU (through the use of CUDA).
