| - | Over the last few decades, clinical healthcare decisions relating to diagnosis, treatment, and therapy have continued to increasingly rely on noninvasive technologies like medical imaging. | + | |
| - | Medical imaging technologies evolve over time, leading to newer techniques that interrogate the anatomy to extract more complex information. \\ | + | |
| - | This entails advances in algorithms for image processing and visualizing the processed image information.\\ | + | |
| - | Medical imaging is also an important scientific tool in collecting structural and functional data to better understand several complex and debilitating disorders, \\ | + | |
| - | such as those affecting the brain, heart, or lungs, including cancer. Scientific studies are increasingly relying on imaging and quantitative image analysis in large populations as \\ | + | |
| - | a less-subjective, more-reproducible, and more- scalable way of understanding the effects of (i) a disorder or (ii) a treatment strategy. | + | |
| - | **Shape analyses** are important in a range of applications in medicine, biology, and computer vision. | ||
| - | Shape analysis entails learning statistical models of shapes of anatomical structures from population data and subsequent statistical analyses, e.g., hypothesis testing or classification. \\ | ||
| - | They provide information on the mean shape underlying a population group, the principles modes of variation of shape within the group,\\ | ||
| - | and the differences between the mean shapes and variabilities between groups. \\ | ||
| - | Examples of anatomical structures whose shape analysis holds important clues about the brain function include the subcortical structures. | ||
