Abstract
A cortical malformation identification method includes quantitatively evaluating, using a processor of a computer that includes the processor and a memory, digital image data from a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan on a cerebral cortex to produce quantified scan data. The method also includes automatically detecting a cortical malformation based on the quantified scan data. An image of the cerebral cortex may be color-coded so that the cortical malformation is shown in a different color than the remainder of the cerebral cortex in the image, based on the quantified scan data. Additionally or alternatively, a 3-dimensional representation of the cerebral cortex may be mapped to the quantified scan data to produce a mapped image of the cerebral cortex including the detected cortical malformation.
