Holder(s) :  Christophe Phillips
Language :  French language
Course contents :  Methods to process and analyse medical images, mainly oriented towards statistical analysis in functional neuro-imaging
Course objective :  The aim is to have an overall understanding of the processing steps of medical images, with a view to functional neuro-imaging:
- image spatial preprocessing: realignment, normalisation, coregistration, segmentation
- statical modeling with the "General Linear Model" and estimation of its parameters
- statistical inference about these parameters and correction for the multiple comparison problem
- other methods: non-parametric statistic, connectivity, dynamic causal modeling, Bayesian inference, etc.
Prerequisites :  Notions of image and signal processing, and/or experience in medical imaging, and/or statistical analysis
Organization :  Cyclotron Research Centre
