扩散张量成像(DTI)是一种有效的、非侵入性的成像方法,用于表征脑组织的微结构和白质组织。虽然它已被广泛应用于人脑的研究,但对非人类灵长类动物的DTI研究最近才进行。DTI在恒河猴研究中越来越多的应用将大大受益于一个标准化的框架,以比较不同研究的结果。图像分析的一种非常常见的策略是将单个扫描空间归一化(共同配准)到代表性模板空间。本文介绍了一种适用于青年恒河猴的DTI脑模板UWRMAC-DTI271的研制。该模板是从271只恒河猴身上产生的,这些猕猴是作为一项独特的脑成像遗传学研究的一部分收集的。这是有史以来用于生成计算大脑模板的动物数量最多的一次,这使得生成一个具有高图像质量并考虑到物种变异性的模板成为可能。DTI-TK的使用进一步保证了模板的质量,DTI-TK是一种在人体研究中经过充分测试的高性能DTI空间归一化方法。我们通过将其与其他常用的DTI归一化标量方法进行比较,首次在猴子研究中证明了它的有效性。预计该模板将在促进恒河猴跨部位体素DTI分析方面发挥重要作用。这种分析对于研究白质结构在大脑功能、发育和其他精神病理障碍中的作用至关重要,对于这些疾病,已经有了经过充分验证的非人类灵长类动物模型。
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a powerful and noninvasive imaging method for characterizing tissue microstructure and white matter organization in the brain. While it has been applied extensively in research studies of the human brain, DTI studies of non-human primates have been performed only recently. The growing application of DTI in rhesus monkey studies would significantly benefit from a standardized framework to compare findings across different studies. A very common strategy for image analysis is to spatially normalize (co-register) the individual scans to a representative template space. This paper presents the development of a DTI brain template, UWRMAC-DTI271, for adolescent Rhesus Macaque (Macaca mulatta) monkeys. The template was generated from 271 rhesus monkeys, collected as part of a unique brain imaging genetics study. It is the largest number of animals ever used to generate a computational brain template, which enables the generation of a template that has high image quality and accounts for variability in the species. The quality of the template is further ensured with the use of DTI-TK, a well-tested and high-performance DTI spatial normalization method in human studies. We demonstrated its efficacy in monkey studies for the first time by comparing it to other commonly used scalar-methods for DTI normalization. It is anticipated that this template will play an important role in facilitating cross-site voxelwise DTI analyses in rhesus macaques. Such analyses are crucial in investigating the role of white matter structure in brain function, development, and other psychopathological disorders for which there are well-validated non-human primate models.
