Wraps command ** gtractAnisotropyMap **
title: Anisotropy Map
category: Diffusion.GTRACT
description: This program will generate a scalar map of anisotropy, given a tensor representation. Anisotropy images are used for fiber tracking, but the anisotropy scalars are not defined along the path. Instead, the tensor representation is included as point data allowing all of these metrics to be computed using only the fiber tract point data. The images can be saved in any ITK supported format, but it is suggested that you use an image format that supports the definition of the image origin. This includes NRRD, NifTI, and Meta formats. These images can also be used for scalar analysis including regional anisotropy measures or VBM style analysis.

Wraps command ** gtractCoRegAnatomy **
title: Coregister B0 to Anatomy B-Spline
category: Diffusion.GTRACT
description: This program will register a Nrrd diffusion weighted 4D vector image to a fixed anatomical image. Two registration methods are supported for alignment with anatomical images: Rigid and B-Spline. The rigid registration performs a rigid body registration with the anatomical images and should be done as well to initialize the B-Spline transform. The B-SPline transform is the deformable transform, where the user can control the amount of deformation based on the number of control points as well as the maximum distance that these points can move. The B-Spline registration places a low dimensional grid in the image, which is deformed. This allows for some susceptibility related distortions to be removed from the diffusion weighted images. In general the amount of motion in the slice selection and read-out directions direction should be kept low. The distortion is in the phase encoding direction in the images. It is recommended that skull stripped (i.e. image containing only brain with skull removed) images shoud be used for image co-registration with the B-Spline transform.

Wraps command ** gtractCopyImageOrientation **
title: Copy Image Orientation
category: Diffusion.GTRACT
description: This program will copy the orientation from the reference image into the moving image. Currently, the registration process requires that the diffusion weighted images and the anatomical images have the same image orientation (i.e. Axial, Coronal, Sagittal). It is suggested that you copy the image orientation from the diffusion weighted images and apply this to the anatomical image. This image can be subsequently removed after the registration step is complete. We anticipate that this limitation will be removed in future versions of the registration programs.

Wraps command ** gtractCoregBvalues **
title: Coregister B-Values
category: Diffusion.GTRACT
description: This step should be performed after converting DWI scans from DICOM to NRRD format. This program will register all gradients in a NRRD diffusion weighted 4D vector image (moving image) to a specified index in a fixed image. It also supports co-registration with a T2 weighted image or field map in the same plane as the DWI data. The fixed image for the registration should be a b0 image. A mutual information metric cost function is used for the registration because of the differences in signal intensity as a result of the diffusion gradients. The full affine allows the registration procedure to correct for eddy current distortions that may exist in the data. If the eddyCurrentCorrection is enabled, relaxationFactor (0.25) and maximumStepSize (0.1) should be adjusted.

Wraps command ** gtractTensor **
title: Tensor Estimation
category: Diffusion.GTRACT
description: This step will convert a b-value averaged diffusion tensor image to a 3x3 tensor voxel image. This step takes the diffusion tensor image data and generates a tensor representation of the data based on the signal intensity decay, b values applied, and the diffusion difrections. The apparent diffusion coefficient for a given orientation is computed on a pixel-by-pixel basis by fitting the image data (voxel intensities) to the Stejskal-Tanner equation. If at least 6 diffusion directions are used, then the diffusion tensor can be computed. This program uses itk::DiffusionTensor3DReconstructionImageFilter. The user can adjust background threshold, median filter, and isotropic resampling.

Image threshold to suppress background. This sets a threshold used on the b0 image to
remove background voxels from processing. Typically, values of 100 and 500 work well for
Siemens and GE DTI data, respectively. Check your data particularly in the globus
pallidus to make sure the brain tissue is not being eliminated with this threshold.
