A gyral coordinate system predictive of fibre orientations (2018)
Journal Article
Cottaar, M., Bastiani, M., Chen, C., Dikranian, K., Van Essen, D., Behrens, T. E., Sotiropoulos, S. N., & Jbabdi, S. (2018). A gyral coordinate system predictive of fibre orientations. NeuroImage, 176, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2018.04.040

When axonal fibres approach or leave the cortex, their trajectories tend to closely follow the cortical convolutions. To quantify this tendency, we propose a three-dimensional coordinate system based on the gyral geometry. For every voxel in the brai...

Background

Ileostomy output determines need for parenteral fluid support. Plant foods may contain chemicals that stimulate intestinal secretion eg. lactucins in lettuce and rhein in rhubarb. These may account for increases in ileostomy output but... Read More about Insights into the different effects of food on intestinal secretion using magnetic resonance imaging.
