Regional changes in cerebral perfusion with age when accounting for changes in gray-matter volume (2024)
Journal Article
Hu, J., Craig, M. S., Knight, S. P., De Looze, C., Meaney, J. F., Kenney, R. A., Chen, X., & Chappell, M. A. (2025). Regional changes in cerebral perfusion with age when accounting for changes in gray-matter volume. Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 93(4), 1807-1820. https://doi.org/10.1002/mrm.30376

Purpose
One possible contributing factor for cerebral blood flow (CBF) decline in normal aging is the increase in partial volume effects due to brain atrophy, as cortical thinning can exacerbate the contamination of gray-matter (GM) voxels by other...

Synthetic cerebral blood vessel generator for training anatomically plausible deep learning models (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kenyon, G., Lau, S., Perperidis, A., CHAPPELL, M., & Jenkinson, M. (2024, July). Synthetic cerebral blood vessel generator for training anatomically plausible deep learning models. Presented at MIUA - Medical Image Understanding and Analysis - 2024, Manchester

Blood vessel networks, with their complex geometrical and topological characteristics, play a significant role in diagnosing and understanding various cerebrovascular diseases. Deep learning (DL) segmentation methods can aid in analysing these struct... Read More about Synthetic cerebral blood vessel generator for training anatomically plausible deep learning models.

Background
The fasting-postprandial state remains an underrecognized confounding factor for quantifying cerebral blood flow (CBF) in the cognitive assessment and differential diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Purpose
To investigate the effe... Read More about Effects of the Fasting‐Postprandial State on Arterial Spin Labeling MRI‐Based Cerebral Perfusion Quantification in Alzheimer's Disease.

Bayesian Inference for Non-linear forward model by using a VAE-based neural network structure (2024)
Journal Article
Zhang, Y., Zheng, J.-Q., & Chappell, M. (2024). Bayesian Inference for Non-linear forward model by using a VAE-based neural network structure. IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, 72, 1400-1411. https://doi.org/10.1109/TSP.2024.3374115

In this paper, a Variational Autoencoder (VAE) based framework is introduced to solve parameter estimation problems for non-linear forward models. In particular, we focus on applications in the field of medical imaging where many thousands of model-b...
