Testing diffusion-derived orientation priors for streamline modelling of the MRI-visible glioblastoma core: the BRIAN framework

Aitor Alberdi Escudero, Kenneth Scerri, Andrew Sammut, Claude Julien Bajada

The paper introduces BRIAN, a diffusion-informed simulator for glioblastoma spread modeling, showing directional tracking improves agreement with MRI-visible tumours but not necessarily with richer angular reconstructions.

Testing the Vogt-Bailey Index using task-based fMRI across pulse sequence protocols

Kristian Galea, Aitor Alberdi Escudero, Nina Attard-Montalto, Nolan Vella, Robert Elton Smith, Christine Farrugia, Paola Galdi, Kenneth Scerri, Liam Butler, Claude Julien Bajada

This study evaluates the Vogt-Bailey Index in task-based fMRI across different pulse sequence protocols, finding it consistently identifies motor cortex connectivity despite protocol variations.

Local gradient analysis of human brain function using the Vogt-Bailey Index

Christine Farrugia, Paola Galdi, Irati Arenzana Irazu, Kenneth Scerri, Claude Julien Bajada

This paper analyzes the Vogt-Bailey index to assess local functional homogeneity in the human cortex and compares it to the ReHo algorithm, finding the VB index better detects sharp changes in local functional organization.

Geometric effects of volume to surface mapping of fMRI data

Keith George Ciantar, Christine Farrugia, Paola Galdi, Kenneth Scerri, Ting Xu, Claude Julien Bajada

The paper identifies spatial variation in neighborhood correlations during volume-to-surface mapping of fMRI data and proposes a mitigation approach.
