| Abstract | It would be very important to estimate the degree of cerebral atrophy based on cortical regions for diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, it would be still challenging to segment brain parenchymal regions with AD into cerebral cortex and white matter when the boundary between them is unclear due to the presence of AD showing in magnetic resonance (MR) images. Our purpose of this study was to develop an automated segmentation of the brain parenchyma into cerebral cortical and white matter regions with AD in three-dimensional (3D) T1-weighted MR images. Our proposed method consisted of extraction of a brain parenchymal region based on a brain model matching and segmentation of the brain parenchyma into cerebral cortical and white matter regions based on a fuzzy c-means (FCM) algorithm. We applied the proposed method to MR images of the whole brain obtained from 9 cases, including 4 AD cases and 5 control cases. The mean volume percentages of the brain parenchymal region in the respective AD patients and controls were 41.7% and 45.2% for cortical cortex region, 58.3% and 54.8% for white matter region, respectively. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
