Popis: Retinotopic mapping aims to uncover the relationship between visual stimuli on the retina and neural responses on the visual cortical surface. This study advances retinotopic mapping by applying diffeomorphic registration to the 3T NYU retinotopy dataset, encompassing analyze-PRF and mrVista data. Diffeomorphic Registration for Retinotopic Maps (DRRM) quantifies the diffeomorphic condition, ensuring accurate alignment of retinotopic maps without topological violations. Leveraging the Beltrami coefficient and topological condition, DRRM significantly enhances retinotopic map accuracy. Evaluation against existing methods demonstrates DRRM's superiority on various datasets, including 3T and 7T retinotopy data. The application of diffeomorphic registration improves the interpretability of low-quality retinotopic maps, holding promise for clinical applications.
