Synopsis

Keywords: Quantitative Imaging, Data Processing, Brain cortexQuantitative MRI allows establishing normative atlases of relaxometry parameters which enable single-subject comparisons for anomaly detection. The large anatomical inter-subject variability of the brain cortex and its convoluted shape, however, complicate such comparison in this region. In this study, a method to align inter-subject brain cortices is proposed and a voxel-wise normative T1 atlas in the cortex is built from a cohort of 133 healthy subjects scanned at 7T. The atlas is used to detect and characterize T1 alterations in two multiple sclerosis patients on a single-subject basis.
