In-Depth Information
Future work in the field of voxel-based morphometry is certain to pursue
better methods for accurately warping one anatomical image to another, as well as
powerful methods for multivariate analysis, which is a particularly difficult task in
view of the huge dimensionality of spatiotemporal image measurements.
