N2 - In this paper we present a method that simultaneously identifies the central layer of the human cortex and maps it onto the interval [0,1] of the real axis. Statistical and geometric information is incorporated into a global variational problem, whose solution is obtained iteratively. The method is evaluated on a set of magnetic resonance (MR) images, acquired with a protocol that optimizes the contrast between the cortical grey matter and the underlying white matter.
