Background  Water molecules in biology tissue tend to diffuse faster along, relative to across, obstacle structures such as fibers or membranes.  Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) measures this anisotropy, providing information about neural fibers.  DTI registration is more complicated than intensity image registration , because tensor must be re-orientated during transformation.  Evaluation of DTI registration is also complicated , involving eigen-analysis, matrix logorithm, tractography.

Motivations  For developers of registration methods:  “ How good is my new method in comparison with other methods?”  “Can I work focus on the development of registration method, not distracted by building the evaluation environment by myself?”  “How can I keep my files well organized so that I still can understand them some time later?”  For users of registration methods:  “ Can I trust the registration results I got and forward to group analysis in the template space?”  “ Is there some outliers in my data that I should screen out?”

Software Environment for DTI Registration and Evaluation is Complicated  A complicated workflow :  Format conversion  Tensor reconstruction  Tractography  Image Registration  Warping of images and tracks  Goodness evaluation  Report of evaluation summaries statistics  Many software packages using different data formats or coordinate systems involved:  DTI-TK, TTK, DTK, Carmino, FSL, …

 Functionality:  Calculate transform. Smoothness: curvature, diffusion, affinity.  Warp tensor images and compare FA, MD, RA, Euclidian difference, logarithm difference.  Warp tracks and track distances.

Directory Tree Modules: Keep Files Organized and Names Consistent

Format Conversion Modules  Functionality:  Automatically convert tensor images to a different space and different coordinate systems.  Automatically convert related files, such as brain masks and tracks.

Example Workflow  Comments:  Programming effort for evaluation is minimized.  Develop just need to input fixed and moving images and tracks and transformation file into the evaluation module, a comprehensive evaluation result will be reported.  Batch job is automatically distributed to computation clusters.
