Related to imaging data\, capturing tempo ral changes involves acquisition of repeated images which in turn enable a nalysis of dynamic processes related to development\, aging\, degeneration \, recovery or prediction – information which is not available from single snapshots in time. Image processing of temporal series of 3-D data embedd ing time-varying anatomical objects and functional measures requires metho ds and tools that make use of the inherent correlation of repeated image a cquisitions. We will discuss crucial aspects of longitudinal imaging such as image harmonization\, image curation and synthesis\, and longitudinal m odeling and segmentation. We will demonstrate that statistical concepts of longitudinal data analysis such as linear and nonlinear mixed-effect mode ling can be extended to structures and shapes modeled from longitudinal im age data\, ranging from modeling of changes of shape or image contrast up to orientation distribution functions (ODFs) as in diffusion MRI. Potentia lly relevant to clinical studies\, we will also show that embedding of sub ject’s covariates such as sex and diagnostic scores into longitudinal imag e and shape analysis may lead to improved interpretability of findings. Th e talk will cover recent learning-based methods and present results from o ngoing clinical studies such as analysis of early brain growth in subjects at risk for autism and those with Down’s syndrome\, analysis of neurodege neration in Huntington's disease\, and quantitative assessment of progress ion of glaucoma from OCT imaging.\n DTSTART:20250321T200000Z DTEND:20250321T210000Z LOCATION:Jeanne Timmins Amphitheatre\, The Neuro SUMMARY:Lecture: Longitudinal Image Analysis to Meet Clinical Needs URL:/neuro/channels/event/lecture-longitudinal-image-a nalysis-meet-clinical-needs-364092 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
