abstract = {Voxel-based DTI analysis is an important approach in the
comparison of subject groups by detecting and localizing
gray and white matter changes in the brain. One of the
principal problems for intersubject comparison is the
absence of a “gold standard” processing pipeline. As a
result, contradictory results may be obtained from identical
data using different data processing pipelines, for example,
in the data normalization or smoothing procedures.
Tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS) shows potential to
overcome this problem by automatic detection of white matter
changes and decreasing variation in the performed analysis.
However, skeleton projection approaches, such as TBSS,
critically depend on the accuracy of the diffusion scalar
metric estimations. In this work, we demonstrate that the
agreement and reliability of TBSS results depend on the
applied DTI data processing algorithm. Statistical tests
have been performed using two in vivo measured datasets and
compared with different implementations of the least squares
algorithm. As a result, we recommend repeating TBSS analysis
using different fitting algorithms, in particular, using on
iteratively-assessed robust estimators, as accurate and more
reliable approach in voxel-based analysis, particularly, for
TBSS. Repeating TBSS analysis allows one to detect and
localize suspicious regions in white matter which were
estimated as the regions with significant difference.
Finally, we did not find a favorite fitting algorithm (or
class of them) which can be marked as more reliable for
group comparison.},
