From: Fast cortical surface reconstruction from MRI using deep learning
FastCSR is robust against image quality and brain distortions. a Cortical surfaces of two individuals with poor imaging quality from the CoRR-HNU dataset are reconstructed by FreeSurfer and FastCSR. White arrows highlight the jagged gyri caused by noise in the image (see upper panel) using the FreeSurfer pipeline. Surfaces obtained from the same individuals are reconstructed using our FastCSR method (see lower panel) and yielded cortical surfaces with smoother gyri. b FreeSurfer failed to reconstruct brain surfaces for three stroke patients whose brains are distorted due to lesions, whereas our FastCSR successfully reconstructed the cortical surfaces in these patients. The anatomical boundaries demarcating white matter and pial boundaries (yellow lines) overlaid onto horizontal sections of the T1w images with white arrows indicating the stroke lesions (upper panel). The corresponding cortical surfaces of the lesional hemispheres are displayed (lower panel). The white arrows indicate the stroke lesions
