Mouse BIRN Shared Data

BIRN shared resources can be found at the following site http://www.nbirn.net/bdr/bdr_current_data.shtm. Highlighted resources include the items below:

  • Mouse 3D Atlas - An atlas based on a magnetic resonance microscopy (MRM) image diffusion-weighted in the Z-direction acquired from a normal, 100-day old male C57BL/6J mouse. The atlas is comprised of a diffusion-weighted image volume, a label volume, a mask volume, and a label index.

  • Mouse Shiverer DTI - High-resolution (80um isotropic) contrast-enhanced diffusion tensor data was acquired from six background control (C3HeB) and six dysmyelinating shiverer (C3Fe.SWV shi/shi) mouse brains. The data consists of nominally unweighted and diffusion weighted images with optimized icosahedral sampling.

  • Cerebellum Large Scale Mosaic - Large scale multiphoton microscopy mosaic image from cerebellum of C57BL/6H normal mouse. A high resolution multiphoton microscopy mosaic image of a cerebellar distribution of cell bodies (Hoescht 33342; blue) and alpha-synuclein (green) from a non-transgenic animal.

  • Hippocampus Large Scale Mosaic - Large scale multiphoton microscopy mosaic image from hippocampus of C57BL/6H D-line transgenic mouse overexpressing alpha-synuclein. A high resolution multiphoton microscopy mosaic image of distribution of cell bodies (Hoescht 33342; blue) and alpha-synuclein (green) from a D-line transgenic animal overexpressing alpha-synuclein under the PDGF promoter.

  • Mouse Common Specimen - The Common Specimen Study involved imaging a single fixed specimen using MRM from Duke's CIVM, Diffusion Weighted MR from Caltech's Beckman Institute, and Optical Histology and Staining from UCLA's LONI. UCSD's NCMIR performed Multiphoton Microscopy using tissue from an animal of the same strain.
