Software tools appropriate for the registration of diffusion tensor images to an average coordinate system. The tools include image registration methods and algorithms for the correct alignment of the diffusion tensor when applying the resulting transformation. The program uses the Slicer3 execution model framework to define the command line arguments, and can be fully integrated using the module discovery capabilities of Slicer3.

http://www.nitrc.org/projects/brainmask/

Segmentation of the brain from three-dimensional MR images is a crucial pre-processing step in morphological and volumetric brain studies. BrainMask implements a fully automatic brain segmentation algorithm that uses advanced thresholding with morphology and 3D edge detection algorithms. BrainMask demonstrates high segmentation accuracy. For a representative 26 datasets, the segmentation error averaged 3.4% ������ 1.3% (Mikheev A et al. J Magn Reson Imag 27(6):1235-41;2008). BrainMask includes NNN - a tool based on the algorithm developed by John Sled for correcting the intensity non-uniformity in MR data (Sled JG et al. IEEE Trans Med Imag 17(1):87-97;1998). BrainMask also includes a versatile DICOM wiewer and allows to selectively load and organize DICOM images into 3D and 4D datasets.

http://brainbrowser.cbrain.mcgill.ca

A web-enabled brain surface viewer that allows the user to explore in real time a 3D brain map expressed on a base surface. BrainBrowser has two modes of operation, exploring either a pre-calculated database of structural correlation maps or working with user-defined data. In this mode, the user may choose to explore the correlation structure for cortical thickness, cortical area or cortical volume, or any other pre-calculated metric. In the second mode, the user is prompted for the local filenames of the statistical map and the base surface. BrainBrowser can also be used to manipulate 3D fibre pathways derived from DTI, using the same simple file format (.obj) as for surface data. BrainBrowser on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlRTUYUf1Ew NOTE: BrainBrowser requires a WebGL-enabled browser such as Google Chrome to support its 3D graphics capability.

https://github.com/BRAINSia/BRAINSTools/tree/master/BRAINSDemonWarp

A command line program for image registration by using different methods including Thirion and diffeomorphic demons algorithms. The function takes in a template image and a target image along with other optional parameters and registers the template image onto the target image. The resultant deformation fields and metric values can be written to a file. The program uses the Insight Toolkit (www.ITK.org) for all the computations, and can operate on any of the image types supported by that library. This a an ITK based implementation of various forms of Thirion Demons based registration (including diffeomorphic demons registration originating from Tom Vercauteren at INRIA ).

http://www.nitrc.org/projects/gpu-areg/

This tool can be used as a command line module with 3D Slicer (version 3 and above) for the affine registration of image volumes. The registration toolbox has 2 options: 1) a Mutual Information based registration, 2) a Sum-of-Square differences registration method. The final output is in the same space as the fixed image. You do require to have CUDA v2.2 or greater installed on your system with atleast 256MB Nvidia GPU memmory card. All operating systems are supported, but take a look at the CMakeLists.txt file for how to compile for you system.

http://www.nitrc.org/projects/fmriclassify/

They demonstrate and provide R code that can classify between groups of fMRI scans based on functional network connectivity differences, requiring only 4 lines of code to be altered. In addition, they include a detailed article explaining the methods behind and motivations of this tool. This code can also be altered to perform connectivity analysis and classification using ROI based methods by reading in distance arrays previously created. They run Independent component analysis (ICA) on fMRI data to establish functional networks, measure the functional connectivity between these networks using the temporal cross-correlations between independent component to create a distance matrix and indicating the networking. Connectivity properties are used as a feature matrix for an SVM classifier. Collectively, this project provides and explains both methods and code to perform functional network connectivity and fMRI SVM classi?cation.

http://www.slicer.org/slicerWiki/index.php/Slicer3:Module:Level-Set_Segmentation_Framework-Documentation

The modules in the framework support different tasks in the segmentation realization in 3DSlicer. A module called Level-set label map evolver was developed, which takes an initial label image and a feature image as input and performs a Geodesic Active Contours evolution on the label image according to the feature image and to a different terms in the level-set equation. The evolution takes place for a customizable number of iterations. The output is a label image that can be used to produce a model. Other modules were developed to accompany the main module as can be seen in http://www.slicer.org/slicerWiki/index.php/Slicer3:Module:Level-Set_Segmentation_Framework-Documentation

http://www.rad.upenn.edu/sbia/software/dramms/

A software designed for deformable 2D-to-2D and 3D-to-3D image registration. Some typical applications of DRAMMS include, ** Cross-subject registration of the same organ (can be brain, breast, cardiac, etc); ** Mono- and Multi-modality registration (MRI, CT, histology); Longitudinal registration (pediatric brain growth, cancer development, etc); ** Registration under partial missing correspondences (small lesions, tumors, histological cuts). DRAMMS is implemented as a Unix command-line tool. It is fully automatic and easy to use ? users input two images, and DRAMMS will output the registered image and deformation. No need for pre-segmentation of any structures, no need for any prior knowledge, and no need for human initialization or intervention.
