OutlineOutline
History: Normative Data
Future: Clinical Data
Difficult Imaging Problems and Possible Solutions
Normative Data: Speech PostureNormative Data: Speech PostureHasegawa-Johnson et al., Hasegawa-Johnson et al., http://www.ifp.uiuc.edu/speech/mrihttp://www.ifp.uiuc.edu/speech/mri
Purpose: Normative data for articulatory therapy, speech synthesis, speech science.
3mm Multislice, 750ms/image, 25 seconds breath hold.
Normative Tagged Cine-MRINormative Tagged Cine-MRIStone et al., 2001Stone et al., 2001
Purpose: Direct observation of biomechanical quantities.
Limitation: 32 repetitions per image sequence.
Diffusion Tensor MRI, Bovine TongueDiffusion Tensor MRI, Bovine TongueWedeen et al., 2001Wedeen et al., 2001
Purpose: Muscle segmentation, structure.
Limitation: Long acquisition => animal specimens.
Clinical Objective: Surgical PlanningClinical Objective: Surgical PlanningKacker, 2000Kacker, 2000
Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome
Normal intelligence, personality.
At least 9 published resection methods; no quantitative comparison of results.
Finite Element Modeling of SurgeryFinite Element Modeling of Surgery
Objective of Proposed Preliminary Study:
Simulate effects of two common surgeries.
Limitation: detailed knowledge of structure & biomechanical properties.
Clinical Data: Surgical, Cadaver Clinical Data: Surgical, Cadaver SamplesSamples
Microscopic imaging of surgically excised tissue,
Diffusion tensor imaging of muscle structure (goal: first DTI of human tongue).
Target Resolution: fascicle thickness = 0.1mm.
Clinical Data: Pre-operative and Clinical Data: Pre-operative and Post-operative MRIPost-operative MRI
Objective: Surgical PlanningObjective: Post-surgical follow-up, correlation of
anatomical and behavioral variablesLimitation: Muscle-Muscle Segmentation
Clinical: Kinematic DiagnosisClinical: Kinematic Diagnosis
Objective: Identify correlations between anatomy, behavior.
Limitation: Speed.
Difficult Imaging ProblemsDifficult Imaging ProblemsSegmentation: Transverse and longitudinal
muscle indistinguishable w/o diffusion weighting.
Diffusion Weighting: Ambiguous in presence of blood flow.
Speed: Sedated: 20 minutes.
Breath hold: 5 seconds.
Dynamic: 10-50 ms.
Possible Solution: SegmentationPossible Solution: Segmentation
Bayesian image segmentation -- combine: Prior knowledge (other segmented volumes)
Ambiguous anatomical image
Ambiguous diffusion tensor image
User-supplied "hints"
Possible Solutions: SpeedPossible Solutions: SpeedImage-recognition based image
