This study introduces a new framework for analyzing mouse brain images, improving accuracy in segmenting neurological and psychiatric conditions. The approach combines multiple MRI modalities and advanced segmentation for better anatomical phenotyping in preclinical research.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroimaging
  • Quantitative anatomy
  • Small animal models

Background:

  • Human brain image analysis tools require adaptation for small animal imaging.
  • Quantitative anatomical phenotyping is crucial for mouse models of neurological and psychiatric disorders.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose and validate a framework for quantitative anatomical phenotyping in mouse models.
  • To adapt and optimize human neuroimaging analysis tools for mouse brain imaging.

Main Methods:

  • Developed an atlas space, image acquisition protocols, and registration software.
  • Integrated human neuroimaging segmentation tools (Avants) into a pipeline for multispectral MRI mouse brain images.
  • Utilized T1, T2*, T2 contrasts, diffusion tensor imaging, and Markov random field segmentation.

Published on: August 1, 2022

Main Results:

  • Combined MRI modalities and segmentation improved accuracy: hippocampus and caudate putamen (93%), white matter (79%), ventricles (68%).
  • Initial accuracy ranged from 44-83% with basic contrasts, improving significantly with diffusion tensor imaging and advanced segmentation.
  • Demonstrated pipeline effectiveness in C57BL/6, BXD29, and APP/TTA mouse strains.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed framework significantly enhances anatomical segmentation accuracy in mouse brains.
  • This approach is promising for characterizing temporal changes in mouse models of human diseases.
  • It provides anatomical constraints for other preclinical imaging modalities like fMRI and molecular imaging.
