Spinal cord pathology causes significant burden to the individual and society-at-large. Treatment is complex and made more difficult by difficulties in clinical imaging of the cord microstructure. Using recent advances in image acquisition techniques and image processing toolsets, this project will investigate a semi-automated pipeline to visualize boundaries of spinal cord pathology for the purpose of translation to computer-assisted neurosurgery. This project is expected to provide critical information to the industry partner to establish appropriate protocols for their industry-leading commercial products in this area.
