Issues with threshold masking in voxel-based morphometry of atrophied brains
2009
NeuroImage
We show that one of the most commonly used strategies for defining this mask runs a major risk of excluding from the analysis precisely those voxels where the subjects' brains were most vulnerable to atrophy ...
Voxel-Based Morphometry (VBM) is one of the most widely used of such techniques. VBM performs voxel-wise statistical analysis of smoothed spatially normalised segmented Magnetic Resonance Images. ...
Introduction In essence, Voxel-Based Morphometry (VBM) (Ashburner and Friston, 2000) involves voxelwise statistical analysis of data derived from structural Magnetic Resonance (MR) brain images of multiple ...
