Synopsis

Keywords: Software Tools, Software Tools, Quantitative Suceptibility Mapping

Motivation: Quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) presents great potential to monitor of neurodegenerative diseases.

Goal(s): Our goal is to provide comprehensive pipelines for QSM research including reconstruction and analysis.

Approach: This work elaborates on the Susceptibility Imaging Process and Analysis Studio (SIPAS) which offers multi-method options for each step with an abundant parameter tuning user-interface. Subsequent analysis of QSM maps is based on the statistical indicators of region-of-interest (ROI) which are delineated on SIPAS.

Results: SIPAS can achieve complete QSM procedures and precise results. Several hospitals have tested SIPAS for QSM research on different organs such as the brain, kidney, and liver.

Impact: Quantitative susceptibility mapping is a key means of neurodegenerative diagnosis. SIPAS may serve as a platform for obtaining and evaluating high-quality susceptibility maps, which can be an effective tool for doctors and institutions to conduct QSM studies.
