A multiplatform, highly modular image processing and visualization application which is under development by the Center for Interdisciplinary Brain Sciences Research. The goal of this project is provide a framework application for neuroimaging which facilitates the interchange of software tools developed by researchers. BrainImageJava can: * Delineate ROIs in slices along X, Y, or Z axes, with 3D feedback in the other axes. * Create and display triangular mesh surfaces from MRI volumes. * Draw Surfaces-of-Interest (SOIs) in 3D, and edit them in a planar display. * Set Talairach grid on a volume, export an AC/PC stack, and measure the values within each grid unit. This 3D image processing and analysis program for the Apple Macintosh PowerPC is based on the public domain application, NIH Image. It includes interactive procedures for 3D MRI quantification including semi-automated procedures for removing non-brain tissues from images, fuzzy segmentation of tissue compartments, global or local parcellation (based on the Talairach atlas), region-growing, etc. The last version of the software included multiplatform capability, volume visualization and advanced image analysis tools.

http://neuro.imm.dtu.dk/software/brede/

A package for neuroinformatics and neuroimaging analysis mostly programmed in Matlab with a few additional programs in Python and Perl. It allows coordinate-based meta-analysis and visualization, neuroimaging analysis of voxel or regional data - not the original data but rather the summary images (e.g., statistical parametric images) and location data in stereotactic space. Among the algorithms implemented are kernel density estimation (for coordinate-based meta-analysis), independent component analysis, non-negative matrix factorization, k-means clustering, singular value decomposition, partial correlation analysis with permutation testing and partial canonical correlation analysis. Visualization of coordinate, surfaces and volumes are possible in 2D and 3D. Generation of HTML for results are possible and algorithms can be accessed from the command line or via a flexible graphical interface. With the Brede Toolbox comes the Brede Database with a small coordinate database from published neuroimaging studies, and ontologies for, e.g., brain function and brain regions.

Suite of programs developed for fMRI analysis in a Virtual Pipeline Laboratory facilitates combining program modules from different software packages into processing pipelines to create analysis solutions which are not possible with a single software package alone. Current pipelines include fMRI analysis, statistical testing based on randomization methods and fractal spectral analysis. Pipelines are continually being added. The software is mostly written in C. This fMRI analysis package supports batch processing and comprises the following general functions at the first level of individual image analysis: movement correction (interpolation and regression), time series modeling, data resampling in the wavelet domain, hypothesis testing at voxel and cluster levels. Additionally, there is code for second level analysis - group and factorial or ANOVA mapping - after co-registration of voxel statistic maps from individual images in a standard space. The main point of difference from other fMRI analysis packages is the emphasis throughout on the use of data resampling (permutation or randomization) as a basis for inference on individual, group and factorial test statistics at voxel and cluster levels of resolution.

This software provides algorithms for the reconstruction of raw MR data. In particular, it supports the reconstruction of accelerated data acquisitions where k-space is subsampled and the Fourier domain encoding is complemented by temporal encoding, spatial encoding, or and/or a constrained reconstruction. This library of functions provides a number of reconstruction algorithms that accurately employ advanced MR imaging methods including: UNFOLD; parallel imaging methods such as SENSE and GRAPPA; Homodyne processing of partial-Fourier data, and gradient field inhomogeneity correction (gradwarp); EPI Nyquist Ghost correction and ramp-sampling gridding. The target audience is research groups who may be interested in exploring or employing advanced MR reconstruction techniques, but don't have the necessary expertise in-house. Inquires may be directed to: ncigt-imaging-toolkit -at- bwh.harvard.edu

https://github.com/clementsan/DTI-Reg

An open-source C++ application that performs pair-wise DTI registration, using scalar FA map to drive the registration. Individual steps of the pair-wise registration pipeline are performed via external applications - some of them being 3D Slicer modules. Starting with two input DTI images, scalar FA maps are generated via dtiprocess. Registration is then performed between these FA maps, via BRAINSFit/BRAINSDemonWarp or ANTS -Advanced Normalization Tools-, which provide different registration schemes: rigid, affine, BSpline, diffeomorphic, logDemons. The final deformation is then applied to the source DTI image via ResampleDTI.

http://code.google.com/p/psom/

A lightweight software library to manage complex multi-stage data processing. A pipeline is a collection of jobs, i.e. Matlab or Octave codes with a well identified set of options that are using files for inputs and outputs. To use PSOM, the only requirement is to generate a description of a pipeline in the form of a simple Matlab / Octave structure. PSOM then automatically offers the following services: * Run jobs in parallel using multiple CPUs or within a distributed computing environment. * Generate log files and keep track of the pipeline execution. These logs are detailed enough to fully reproduce the analysis. * Handle job failures : successful completion of jobs is checked and failed jobs can be restarted. * Handle updates of the pipeline : change options or add jobs and let PSOM figure out what to reprocess !

This package contains a software implementation for joint label fusion and corrective learning, which were applied in MICCAI 2012 Grand Challenge on Multi-Atlas Labeling and finished in the first place. Joint label fusion is for combining candidate segmentations produced by registering and warping multiple atlases for a target image. Corrective learning can be applied to further reduce systematic errors produced by joint label fusion. In general, corrective learning can be applied to correct systematic errors produced by other segmentation methods as well.
