Computational methods for precise reconstruction of white-matter fibre tracts in the human brain using diffusion tensor imaging

五分之一的澳大利亚人会患有精神疾病。该项目将促进一种新的方法：（1）大脑研究人员促进对精神疾病和大脑紊乱的基本理解;（2）临床医生诊断和评估澳大利亚老龄人口面临的精神疾病发病率不断上升的问题，从而解决老龄化问题，并有效地解决老龄化问题，这是国家研究的优先事项;以及（3）神经外科医生通过主要神经束的定位来指导手术。除了有助于了解、诊断和治疗澳大利亚的地方性精神健康负担外，该项目还将提高澳大利亚在基础科研方面的技能基础和国际地位。

One in five Australians will experience a mental illness. This project will facilitate a new method for: (1) brain researchers to advance the fundamental understanding of mental illnesses and brain disorders; (2) medical clinicians to diagnose and assess the growing incidence of mental illness confronting Australia's ageing population, thereby addressing the ageing well and ageing productively national research priority; and, (3) neurosurgeons to guide surgery via localisation of major neural tracts. In addition to contributing to the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of Australia's endemic mental health burden, this project will advance Australia's skill-base and international standing in basic scientific research.
