about | manual | faq | credits | changelog | feedback

Large Deformation Diffeomorphic Metric Mapping (LDDMM) aims to assign metric distances on the space of anatomical images in Computational Anatomy thereby allowing for the direct comparison and quantization of morphometric changes in shapes and structure of biological tissues. lddmm-dti-vector matches DTI images through the mapping of the vector fields of each image. lddmm-dit-tensor matches DTI images through the mapping of the tensor fields of each image. As part of these efforts the Center for Imaging Science at Johns Hopkins University develop techniques to not only compare images, but also to visualize the changes and differences.
