An integrated methodology for imaging, segmenting, modeling, and deriving computationally-predicted pressure-derived mitral leaflet stresses is presented and points the way towards intraoperative and periprocedural guidance from morphometric and stress modeling of the mitral valve. In vivo human mitral valves are … Continue reading
This research seeks to understand the relations among socioeconomic status (SES), early life experience, and learning in adolescents. Previous research has shown that learning ability is positively correlated with SES, and preliminary studies suggest that the effects of childhood experience … Continue reading
Tract specific Analysis (TSA) uses continuous medial modeling for structure- specific analysis of diffusion in sheet-like white matter tracts in the human brain. The medial geometry provides both a skeleton surface (the medial surface) and two “spoke” vectors from the … Continue reading
