Abstract: A system for optimizing DBS parameters for a subject includes automatically performing actions via a processor. The actions include obtaining functional MRI data of a brain of the subject acquired utilizing an MRI system during DBS of the brain utilizing a first set of DBS parameters. The actions include generating functional MRI response maps from the functional MRI data. The actions include extracting, utilizing an unsupervised autoencoder-based neural network, features from the functional MRI response maps. The actions include determining, utilizing a deep learning-based DBS parameter classification model, whether the first set of DBS parameters are optimal DBS parameters for the subject based on the features. The actions include, when the first set of DBS parameters are not the optimal DBS parameters, predicting, utilizing a deep learning-based DBS parameter prediction model, a second set of DBS parameters that are the optimal DBS parameters for the subject based on the features.

Abstract: A system and method for identifying a patient-specific neurosurgery target location is provided. The system receives brain imaging data for a patient that includes tracts and networks in the patient brain, accesses a quantitative connectome atlas comprising population-based, disease-specific structural and functional connectivity maps comprising a pattern of tracts and networks associated with an optimal target area (OTA) identified from a population of patients, and defines the patient-specific neurosurgery target location based on a comparison between a pattern of the tracts and networks from the brain imaging data for the patient and the pattern of tracts and networks associated with the OTA identified from the population of patients in the quantitative connectome atlas.

Abstract: A system and method for optimizing parameters of a DBS pulse signal for treatment of a patient is provided. In predicting optimal DBS parameters, functional brain data is input into a predictor system, the functional brain data acquired responsive to a sweeping across a multi-dimensional parameter space of one or more DBS parameters. Statistical metrics of brain response are extracted from the functional brain data for one or more ROIs or voxels of the brain via the predictor system, and a DBS functional atlas is accessed, via the predictor system, that comprises disease-specific brain response maps derived from DBS treatment at optimal DBS parameter settings for a plurality of diseases or neurological conditions. One or more optimal DBS parameters are predicted for the patient based on the statistical metrics of brain response and the DBS functional atlas via the predictor system.
