Hui KK, Liu J, Makris N, Gollub RL, Chen AJ, Moore CI, Kennedy DN, Rosen BR, Kwong KK Hum Brain Mapp 2000;9(1):13-25 PMID: 10643726 Abstract Acupuncture, an ancient therapeutic technique, is emerging as an important modality of complementary medicine in the United States. The use and efficacy of acupuncture treatment… read more →
Caviness VS, Makris N, Lange NT, Herbert M, Kennedy DN Keio J Med 2000 Jun;49(2):66-73 PMID: 10900831 Abstract Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain is now generally indispensable to state of art clinical medicine. Robust, high resolution imaging systems are currently available worldwide. The availability of MRI has, in little… read more →
Caviness VS, Lange NT, Makris N, Herbert MR, Kennedy DN Brain Dev. 1999 Jul;21(5):289-95 PMID: 10413014 Abstract MRI-based brain volumetrics is an established methodology of great versatility and reliability with a broad range of potential applications in medicine and basic human brain science. We consider here, more theoretical implications of… read more →
Kennedy DN, O’Craven KM, Ticho BS, Goldstein AM, Makris N, Henson JW Neurology 1999 Oct;53(6):1260-5 PMID: 10522882 Abstract OBJECTIVE: To determine whether individuals with situs inversus totalis (SI), a condition in which there is a mirror-image reversal of asymmetric visceral organs, have alterations in brain asymmetries. BACKGROUND: The human brain… read more →
Jenkins BG, Chen YI, Kuestermann E, Makris NM, Nguyen TV, Kraft E, Brownell AL, Rosas HD, Kennedy DN, Rosen BR, Koroshetz WJ, Beal MF Ann. N. Y. Acad. Sci. 1999;893:214-42 PMID: 10672240 Abstract The number of physiologic and metabolic phenomena amenable to analysis using magnetic resonance (MR) techniques is increasing… read more →
Meyer JW, Makris N, Bates JF, Caviness VS, Kennedy DN Neuroimage 1999 Jan;9(1):1-17 PMID: 9918725 Abstract We describe a virtually automatic comprehensive parcellation of the human cerebral central white matter, which is based upon T1-weighted MRI scans. The system, which is “rule-based,” is developed from prior anatomic studies of the… read more →
Makris N, Meyer JW, Bates JF, Yeterian EH, Kennedy DN, Caviness VS Neuroimage 1999 Jan;9(1):18-45 PMID: 9918726 Abstract We describe a system for parcellation of the human cerebral white matter and nuclei, based upon magnetic resonance images. An algorithm for subdivision of the cerebral central white matter according to topographic… read more →
Worth AJ, Makris N, Meyer JW, Caviness VS, Kennedy DN Med Image Anal 1998 Dec;2(4):315-24 PMID: 10072199 Abstract This work demonstrates encouraging results for increasing the automation of a practical and precise magnetic resonance brain image segmentation method. The intensity threshold for segmenting the brain exterior is determined automatically by… read more →
Worth AJ, Makris N, Patti MR, Goodman JM, Hoge EA, Caviness VS, Kennedy DN IEEE Trans Med Imaging 1998 Apr;17(2):303-10 PMID: 9688163 Abstract This paper demonstrates a time-saving, automated method that helps to segment the lateral ventricles and caudate nucleus in T1-weighted coronal magnetic resonance (MR) brain images of normal… read more →
Kennedy DN, Lange N, Makris N, Bates J, Meyer J, Caviness VS Cereb. Cortex 1998 Jun;8(4):372-84 PMID: 9651132 Abstract This magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based morphometric analysis of cortical topography in the human brain is based upon the segmentation and parcellation of volumetric T1-weighted MRI data for a set of 20… read more →
