    Cerebellar Volumetry in Ataxias: Relation to Ataxia Severity and Duration

    Cerebellar atrophy is the neuropathological hallmark of most ataxias. Hence, quantifying the volume of the cerebellar grey and white matter is of great interest. In this study, we aim to identify volume differ...

    Identifying and Combating Bias in Segmentation Networks by Leveraging Multiple Resolutions

    Exploration of bias has significant impact on the transparency and applicability of deep learning pipelines in medical settings, yet is so far woefully understudied. In this paper, we consider two separate gro...

    Learning Anatomical Segmentationsfor Tractography from Diffusion MRI

     approaches for diffusion MRI have so far focused primarily on voxel-based segmentation of lesions or white-matter fiber tracts. A drawback of representing tracts as volumetric labels, rather than sets of stre...
