Mathematical Modeling of the Human Brain : From Magnetic Resonance Images to Finite Element Simulation / Kent-André Mardal, Marie E. Rognes, Travis B. Thompson, Lars Magnus Valnes

Mathematical Modeling of the Human Brain From Magnetic Resonance Images to Finite Element Simulation / Kent-André Mardal, Marie E. Rognes, Travis B. Thompson, Lars Magnus Valnes

This open access book bridges common tools in medical imaging and neuroscience with the numerical solution of brain modelling PDEs. The connection between these areas is established through the use of two existing tools, FreeSurfer and FEniCS, and one novel tool, the SVM-Tk, developed for this book....
