Synopsis

WhiteMatterAnalysis (WMA) provides fiber clustering and tractography analysis tools.

WMA Installation and Usage

1. Install Python 3:

Miniconda is a nice option because it includes pip, setuptools, and all library dependencies (such as VTK and scipy).

2. Install whitematteranalysis with pip:

The following command will use pip to install whitematteranalysis from this source repository and all library dependencies:

$ pip install git+https://github.com/SlicerDMRI/whitematteranalysis.git

Note: On macOS, to be able to use pip, X-code needs to be installed using $ xcode-select --install.

Run $ wm_quality_control_tractography.py --help to test if the installation is successful.

3. Documentation

The whitematteranalysis package documentation can be found at https://whitematteranalysis.readthedocs.io/en/latest/.

  • A master shell script wm_apply_ORG_atlas_to_subject.sh (see code here) is provided to apply an anatomically curated white matter atlas (the ORG atlas), along with the computation tools provided in whitematteranalysis, to perform subject-specific tractography parcellation.
$ wm_apply_ORG_atlas_to_subject.sh \
  -i input_tractography.vtk \
  -o output_dir \
  -a path_to_atlas/ORG-Atlases-v1.x \
  -s /Applications/Slicer5.2.2.app/Contents/MacOS/Slicer \
  -d 1 \
  -m /Applications/Slicer5.2.2.app/Contents/Extensions-31382/SlicerDMRI/lib/Slicer-5.2/cli-modules/FiberTractMeasurements
  • A step-by-step tutorial to explain the detailed computational process within the pipeline is provided here.

  • The names of the anatomical bundles WMA extracts can be found in the bundles page.
