New quantitative analysis of high-field 3T MRI/DTI to assess neonatal brain development 1,2 G Gerig, 2 Pierre Fillard, 2 M Prastawa, 3 W Lin, 1 John Gilmore, Departments of 1 Psychiatry, 2 Computer Science, 3 Radiology University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill,NC 27614, USA, / SUMMARY Structural MRI It is feasible to study brain development in unsedated newborns using 3T MRI Study will likely provide a vastly improved understanding of early brain development and its relationship to neuropsychiatric disorders. Novelty: Tissue model for segmentation of myelinated/nonmyel. white matter. Novelty: Use of tractography for complex regions of interest analysis CONCLUSIONS Building of Atlas Template Research: Quantitative MRI to study unsedated newborns at risk for neurodevelopmental disorders. Clinical Study: 120 newborns recruited at UNC, age at MRI about 2 weeks Motivation: Early detection of abnormalities  Possibility for early intervention and therapy. Imaging: High field (3T Siemens Allegra), high resolution (T1 1mm 3, FSE 0.9x0.9x3mm 3 ), high-speed imaging (12’ for T1, FSE and DTI). Preliminary Study: 20 normal neonates (10 males, 10 females) Age 16 ± 4 days Siemens 3T head-only scanner Neonates were fed prior to scanning, swaddled, fitted with ear protection and had their heads fixed in a vac-fix device A pulse oximeter was monitored by a physician or research nurse Most neonates slept during the scan Motion-free scans in infants Conte Center: Total of 120 infants T1 3D MPRage 1x1x1 mm3 FSE T2w 1x1x3 mm3 FSE PDw 1x1x3 mm3 Here Text Template MRIwhite matter csf gray matter Tissue Probability Maps NeonateAdult Approach: Atlas-moderated EM segmentation (cf. Leemput and Warfield) Tissue intensity model for white matter (non-myelinated and myelinated wm form bimodal distribution) (cf. Cocosco, Prastawa) Challenge: Very low CNR, heterogeneous tissue, early myelination regions, reverse contrast wm/gm. Standard brain tissue segmentation fails.

Decrease of fractional anisotropy (FA) from interior to the periphery. Higher ADC values compared to a matured brain (adult). Lower FA values compared to adults.
