9 Pkg-Description: DTI spatial normalization and atlas construction toolkit
10 DTI-TK is a spatial normalization & atlas construction toolkit,
11 designed from ground up to support the manipulation of
12 diffusion-tensor images (DTI) with special cares taken to respect the
13 tensorial nature of the data. It implements a state-of-the-art
14 registration algorithm that drives the alignment of white matter (WM)
15 tracts by matching the orientation of the underlying fiber bundle at
16 each voxel. The algorithm has been shown to both improve WM tract
17 alignment and to enhance the power of statistical inference in
18 clinical settings. The key features include:
20 - NIfTI support for scalar, vector and DTI volumes
21 - tool chains for manipulating DTI volumes: resampling, smoothing,
22 warping, registration & visualization
23 - pipelines for WM morphometry: spatial normalization & atlas
24 construction for population-based studies
25 - built-in cluster-computing support
26 - interoperability with other major DTI tools: AFNI, Camino,
