Brain Imaging01:14

Brain Imaging

Brain imaging technologies provide critical insights into both the structure and function of the human brain, enabling medical professionals and researchers to diagnose, study, and treat neurological disorders or psychiatric disorders more effectively.
These technologies include computerized axial tomography (CAT or CT scans), positron-emission tomography (PET scans),  magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),  functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS).

Imaging Studies VII: Vascular Imaging

DefinitionRenal angiography, also known as renal arteriography, is an imaging technique used to obtain a comprehensive view of blood flow and the vascular structure of blood vessels in the kidneys and surrounding areas.PurposeRenal angiography detects blood vessel abnormalities in the kidneys, such as aneurysms, stenosis, thrombosis, vascular tumors, and renal artery stenosis. It evaluates kidney function and guides interventional treatments like angioplasty or stent placement.Pre-Procedure...

  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • Digital twins in medicine offer personalized insights for precision medicine.
  • Cerebrovascular digital twins are crucial for modeling brain hemodynamics and bio-transport.
  • A key challenge is converting in vivo cerebrovascular images into simulation-ready data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present CerebroVascular Imaging to Graph reconstruction (CVIG), a novel framework.
  • To reconstruct whole-brain cerebrovascular graphs from in vivo medical images.
  • To enable high-fidelity brain biophysical simulations for digital twin applications.

Main Methods:

  • CVIG integrates vessel vectorization with tolerance for discontinuities.
  • A topology-guided assembly of vessel trees reconstructs cerebrovascular graphs.
  • The framework processes in vivo cerebrovascular images for graph generation.

Main Results:

  • CVIG successfully generates cerebrovascular graphs from medical images.
  • The reconstructed graphs exhibit improved vascular coverage and topological correctness.
  • This demonstrates the framework's suitability for high-fidelity brain biophysical simulations.

Conclusions:

  • CVIG establishes a robust vascular graph framework for individualized brain modeling.
