Abstract

The invention relates to a magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging fiber bundle tracking device. The process is respectively completed by each component through the following steps of (1) collecting magnetic resonance diffusion tensor images; (2) carrying out brain issue dividing on a sequence without a diffusion gradient magnetic field and any sequence with the diffusion gradient magnetic field, and using the sequence without the diffusion gradient magnetic field as an image reference template of the brain tissues; (3) carrying out three-dimensional affine conversion on the two image sequences of the brain tissues after being extracted, to obtain a space conversion relationship; (4) carrying out space conversion on the remained diffusion tensor images by an optimum conversion relationship; (5) calculating tensor fields and feature vectors; (6) setting the interested areas and tracking conditions; and (7) carrying out the bidirectional tracking and displaying based on a fiber bundle with variable step size, so as to quickly and effectively carry out fiber bundle tracking and displaying on the white matters of human brain. In the diffusion tensor imaging process, the image deviation caused by space positions can be corrected, and the elastic step size is adopted in the tracking process, so as to ensure the reliable fiber bundle tracking.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging fiber bundle tracking device which is used to solve the problem of displaying white matter fiber bundles in human brain magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging and can be applied to the fields of clinical diagnosis and treatment of human brain diseases and the like. Background technique [0002] Due to the different acquisition times of multi-sequence images of magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging, the spatial positions of the sequence images are prone to inconsistency, which leads to errors in the tensor of each voxel, and ultimately makes it difficult to achieve satisfactory results in white matter fiber tract tracking. Even if a head fixation device is used in the actual scanning process, the head movement cannot be completely eliminated, so the spatial position correction of the multi-sequence images is very important. In the process of tracing brain nerve fiber bundl...
