This study introduces a novel method using holomorphic 1-forms for parameterizing complex anatomical surfaces. This technique offers stable, low-distortion mapping for brain structures like the cortex and ventricles.

Area of Science:

  • Computational geometry
  • Medical imaging analysis
  • Differential geometry

Background:

  • Parameterizing complex anatomical surfaces is challenging.
  • Existing methods like surface inflation struggle with intricate topologies.
  • A stable and generalizable parameterization method is needed for anatomical analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a general approach for parameterizing anatomical surfaces with complex topologies using holomorphic 1-forms.
  • To create intrinsic and stable surface subdivisions and parameterizations.
  • To enable statistical comparison and grid generation for neuroimaging data.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing holomorphic 1-forms to leverage Riemann surface structures.
  • Inducing conformal structures to create curvilinear coordinate systems.
