Nestor PG, Kubicki M, Niznikiewicz M, Gurrera RJ, McCarley RW, Shenton ME Neuropsychology 2008 Mar;22(2):246-54 PMID: 18331167 Abstract Patients with schizophrenia and healthy control subjects underwent both neuropsychological evaluation and magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging, during which the cingulum bundle (CB) and the uncinate fasciculus (UF) were defined with fiber… read more →
Maddah M, Kubicki M, Wells WM, Westin CF, Shenton ME, Grimson WE Med Image Comput Comput Assist Interv 2008;11(Pt 1):917-24 PMID: 18979833 Abstract This paper presents a tract-oriented analysis of diffusion tensor (DT) images of the human brain. We demonstrate that unlike the commonly used ROI-based methods for population studies,… read more →
Oh JS, Kubicki M, Rosenberger G, Bouix S, Levitt JJ, McCarley RW, Westin CF, Shenton ME Hum Brain Mapp 2009 Nov;30(11):3812-25 PMID: 19449328 Abstract Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and fiber tractography are useful tools for reconstructing white matter tracts (WMT) in the brain.
