Featured Image: Spatial distribution of white-matter hyperintensities in Alzheimer disease, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, and healthy aging.
SPECT atlas of cerebral white matter perfusion constructed from 47 healthy adult volunteers illustrating significant inhomogeneity. Perfusion values are indicated by the colorbar, in which red indicates higher perfusion.
The Surgical Planning Lab is advancing the future of health care by bringing the power of computation and imaging to new areas of medicine. The lab collaborates with groups within Brigham and Women's Hospital, with other researchers at the Harvard Medical School, with local universities such as Harvard and MIT, and with gifted clinicians, researchers, and engineers throughout the world. The Core Mission of the SPL is the extraction of medically relevant information from diagnostic imaging data.
