Brain Imaging

Brain Imaging

Brain imaging technologies provide critical insights into both the structure and function of the human brain, enabling medical professionals and researchers to diagnose, study, and treat neurological disorders or psychiatric disorders more effectively.
These technologies include computerized axial tomography (CAT or CT scans), positron-emission tomography (PET scans), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and Transcranial Magnetic...

Area of Science:

Neuroscience
Biomedical Imaging
Data Science

Background:

Human neuroimaging data sharing is crucial for advancing imaging biomarkers in neurological and psychiatric disorders.
Open Science principles present opportunities but also significant challenges for widespread data sharing.

Purpose of the Study:

To identify and outline the primary opportunities and challenges in sharing human neuroimaging data within the Open Science framework.
To provide actionable recommendations for overcoming existing barriers to data sharing.

Main Methods:

An online survey was disseminated to senior scientists in the neuroimaging field.
Results from the survey were analyzed to identify key themes regarding data sharing practices, opportunities, and challenges.

Main Results:

The scientific community acknowledges the importance of data sharing but faces obstacles related to technical, legal, and motivational factors.
Specific technical barriers were identified, and practical advice for their resolution is proposed.

Conclusions:

Harmonized application of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) across EU countries is needed.
A system recognizing data generation and sharing as valuable community contributions should be developed to incentivize open science practices.
