National Alliance for Medical Image Computing http://na-mic.org fMRI Update Algorithms for time-series analysis –Regularization/smoothing –Segmentation/clustering Enabling methodologies –Joint analysis with other modalitites – Group analysis Core 1 / Core 3 projects to apply to clinical data Core 1 / Core 2 projects to integrate into NAMIC-kit

3. National Alliance for Medical Image Computing http://na-mic.org fMRI Detection/Regularization Smarter strategies for smoothing –MRF priors (MIT/BWH) Wanmei Ou, Polina Golland, Sandy Wells –Surface-based vs. volumetric smoothing (MGH) Anastasia Yendiki, Doug Greve, Bruce Fischl Example: MIND fMRI reliability study –Sensorimotor paradigm –10 subjects on 2 visits at each of 4 sites –We thank Randy Gollub for providing the MIND data

4. National Alliance for Medical Image Computing http://na-mic.org Surface vs. Volume Smoothing Surface Volume Four subjects (fixed-effects, single visit), 15mm FWHM: Demonstrated better detection power
