Summary
This paper describes a statistical model for volumetric MRI data analysis, which identifies the "change-point" when brain atrophy begins in premanifest Huntington's disease. Whole-brain mapping of the change-points is achieved based on brain volumes obtained using an atlas-based segmentation pipeline of T1-weighted images.
