BrainSuite

Download
BrainSuite is a suite of image analysis tools designed to process magnetic resonance images (MRI) of the human head. BrainSuite provides an automatic sequence to extract genus-zero cortical surface mesh models from the MRI. It also provides a set of viewing tools for exploring image and surface data. The latest release includes graphical user interface and command line versions of the tools.

Please note that we have released a new version of BrainSuite, which you can download here: loni.ucla.edu/Software/BrainSuite13.

Features

  • Cortical surface extraction, using a multi-stage user friendly approach. Tools include brain surface extraction, bias field correction, voxel classification, cerebrum labeling, and surface generation
  • Sophisticated visualization tools, including MRI visualization in 3 orthogonal views, and surface visualization of cortex, skull, and scalp models
  • Easy-to-use tools for voxel-based delineation of anatomical structures or regions of interest
  • Semi-automatic tools for curve-based delineation of cortical landmarks
