Journal Article
Hernández, M., Guerrero, G. D., Cecilia, J. M., García, J. M., Inuggi, A., Jbabdi, S., Behrens, T. E. J., & Sotiropoulos, S. N. (2013). Accelerating fibre orientation estimation from diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging using GPUs. PLoS ONE, 8(4), Article e61892. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0061892

With the performance of central processing units (CPUs) having effectively reached a limit, parallel processing offers an alternative for applications with high computational demands. Modern graphics processing units (GPUs) are massively parallel pro... Read More about Accelerating fibre orientation estimation from diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging using GPUs.

Role of oral teriflunomide in the management of multiple sclerosis (2013)
Journal Article

Serial MR diffusion to predict treatment response in high-grade pediatric brain tumors: a comparison of regional and voxel-based diffusion change metrics (2013)
Journal Article
Rodriguez Gutierrez, D., Manita, M., Jaspan, T., Dineen, R. A., Grundy, R. G., & Auer, D. P. (in press). Serial MR diffusion to predict treatment response in high-grade pediatric brain tumors: a comparison of regional and voxel-based diffusion change metrics. Neuro-Oncology, 15(8), https://doi.org/10.1093/neuonc/not034

Background

Assessment of treatment response by measuring tumor size is known to be a late and potentially confounded response index. Serial diffusion MRI has shown potential for allowing earlier and possibly more reliable response assessment in a...
