| Abstract | High angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI) is an MR acquisition technique that has been used to identify and estimate multi-modal structure in white matter. We introduce a multiresolution estimator of the diffusion density in g-space based on a wavelet lifting scheme for HARDI data. The proposed technique avoids imposing isotropic smoothing with a fixed bandwidth that is a common feature in other higher-order methods. Summary statistics for the properties of the diffusion density are derived entirely in q-space, based on great circle and perpendicular great circle statistics. A framework is developed to characterise structural features of the diffusion using these statistics. |
