Data in Brief
|November 7, 2015
Summary
This study presents a standardized group connectome derived from 20 subjects, processed using advanced diffusion MRI techniques. This valuable resource offers insights into white-matter connectivity for studies lacking subject-specific data.
Area of Science:
- Neuroimaging
- Neuroscience
- Medical Imaging
Background:
- Diffusion MRI data is crucial for understanding white-matter connectivity.
- Subject-specific MRI data is not always available for medical studies.
- Standardized connectomes can provide canonical insights into brain structure.
Purpose of the Study:
- To create a standardized group connectome from 20 subjects.
- To facilitate research combining different neuroimaging modalities.
- To support meta-analyses and literature-based studies by providing structural insights.
Main Methods:
- Data acquired from 20 subjects within a specific study.
- Processing using Gibbs' Tracking approach for diffusion MRI.
- Normalization into standard stereotactic (MNI) space using DARTEL.
Main Results:
- A normalized group connectome dataset has been generated.
- The dataset provides a canonical reference for white-matter pathways.
- Enables integration of findings from various neuroimaging techniques.
Conclusions:
- The standardized connectome serves as a valuable resource for neuroscience research.
- It aids studies lacking individual diffusion MRI data.
- Facilitates multimodal brain connectivity research and meta-analyses.
