Abstract

A new way to extract texture information from magnetic resonance (MR) data sets is proposed. The approach is based on the recently-developed Stockwell transform (ST), a multi-scale localized extension of the Fourier transform. Since the ST provides a space-frequency representation of an image, this property may be exploited to derive texture images using local spatial frequency content of multi-spectral MR exams of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. As illustrated, the new information can aid detection of sub-clinical MR abnormalities in cerebral normal appearing white matter of MS patients.
