Influence of Doping and Excitation Powers on Optical Thermometry in Yb3+-Er3+ doped CaWO4.

abstract：:Tractography atlas-based analysis (TABS) is a new diffusion tensor image (DTI) statistical analysis method for detecting and understanding voxel-wise white matter properties along a fiber tract. An important requisite for accurate and sensitive TABS is the availability of a deformation field that is able to register D...
