Anomalous diffusion processes (ADP) are mathematically denoted by a power law in the Fokker-Planck equation, leading to the generalized form. There are several generalizations of the Fokker-Plank equation, which should give many different partial differential equations (PDEs). Here we adopt only the so-called porous media form, allowing the super-diffusive and the subdiffusive processes. <ref>Tsallis, C. (2009).

Extension Description

LesionSimulator-logo.png

This extension offer a set of tools for brain lesion simulation, based on MRI images. At moment, the module MS Lesion Simulator is available, where it can simulates both baseline scan lesion volumes (given a lesion load) and longitudinal image simulations. The general procedure describe in the MS Lesion Simulator is described in the original paper.


Modules

Use Cases

Most frequently used for these scenarios:

  • Use Case 1: Simulate different anatomical/clinical MS lesions patterns on healthy individuals MRI images
    • In the baseline scan approach, it is offered a simulation procedure where a determined lesion load is reconstructed using a subject specific anatomical features, resulting in a realistic MS lesion load simulation.
  • Use Case 2: Simulate longitudinal MS lesion progression on clinical healthy individuals MRI images
