http://www.brain-connectivity-toolbox.net

A large selection of complex network measures in Matlab that are increasingly used to characterize structural and functional brain connectivity datasets. Several people have contributed to the toolbox, and if you wish to contribute with a new function or set of functions, please contact Olaf Sporns. All efforts have been made to avoid errors, but users are strongly urged to independently verify the accuracy and suitability of toolbox functions for the chosen application. Please report bugs or substantial improvements.

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

A software toolkit that performs multiple imputation for group level, single sample t-tests. Whole brain group level statistic maps from fMRI rarely cover the entire brain as a result of missing data. Missingness between subjects in fMRI datasets can result from susceptibility artifacts, bounding box (acquisition parameters), and small differences in post-normalized morphology. The toolkit consists of several interactive command line scripts that guide the user to map the spatial distribution of missing data across contrast images, calculate spatial neighborhood averages that help impute values, perform conventional and multiple imputed t-statistics, save the results to brain maps, and create result tables. The toolkit contains an instruction manual (pdf), two Matlab scripts and one R-Statistics script, which depend on functions defined in the popular SPM toolbox and functions defined in the MICE package for (R).

This toolbox is an EEGLAB plugin for performing Measure Projection Analysis. Measure Projection Analysis (MPA) is a novel probabilistic multi-subject inference method that overcomes EEG Independent Component (IC) clustering issues by abandoning the notion of distinct IC clusters. Instead, it searches voxel by voxel for brain regions having event-related IC process dynamics that exhibit statistically significant consistency across subjects and/or sessions as quantified by the values of various EEG measures. Local-mean EEG measure values are then assigned to all such locations based on a probabilistic model of IC localization error and inter-subject anatomical and functional differences.

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

An automated toolbox for a generalized form of psychophysiological interactions for SPM and FSFAST. The automated toolbox can do the following: (a1) produce identical results to the current implementation in SPM (a2) use the current implementation of PPI in SPM but using the regional mean instead of the eigenvariate (a3) use a generalized form that allows a PPI for each task to be in the same model using either the regional mean of eigenvariate (b) create the model using the output of one of the (a) options and the first level design (c) estimate the model (/results directory) (d) compute the contrasts specified.

http://cmic.cs.ucl.ac.uk/mig/index.php?n=Tutorial.NODDImatlab

This MATLAB toolbox implements a data fitting routine for Neurite Orientation Dispersion and Density Imaging (NODDI). NODDI is a new diffusion MRI technique for imaging brain tissue microstructure. Compared to DTI, it has the advantage of providing measures of tissue microstructure that are much more direct and hence more specific. It achieves this by adopting the model-based strategy which relates the signals from diffusion MRI to geometric models of tissue microstructure. In contrast to typical model-based techniques, NODDI is much more clinically feasible and can be acquired on standard MR scanners with an imaging time comparable to DTI.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 4th,2023. Calibration data set of spoiled gradient-recalled echo magnetic resonance imaging data from five healthy volunteers (four males and one female) scanned twice at four sites having 1.5T systems from different vendors (Siemens, GE, Marconi Medical Systems) pooled by the Morphometry Testbed's (MBIRN). Some subjects were also scanned a single time at another site. One subject was only scanned twice at three sites (subject 73213384) and once at another site. For each subject, four Fast Low-Angle Shot (FLASH) scans with flip angles of 3, 5, 20, and 30 degrees were obtained in a single scan session, from which tissue proton density and T1 maps can be derived. These data were acquired to investigate various metrics of within-site and across-site reproducibility. The images have been defaced so that no facial features can be reconstructed from these data. The Morphometry Testbed (MBIRN) of the Biomedical Informatics Research Network (BIRN) focused on pooling and analyzing of neuroimaging data acquired at multiple sites. Specific applications include potential relationships between anatomical differences and specific memory dysfunctions, such as Alzheimer's disease. With the completion of the initial BIRN testbed phase, each of the original BIRN testbeds have now been retired in order to focus on new users in other biomedical domains.

Data set of raw anatomical and functional MR data from 72 patients with Schizophrenia and 75 healthy controls (ages ranging from 18 to 65 in each group). All subjects were screened and excluded if they had: history of neurological disorder, history of mental retardation, history of severe head trauma with more than 5 minutes loss of consciousness, history of substance abuse or dependence within the last 12 months. Diagnostic information was collected using the Structured Clinical Interview used for DSM Disorders (SCID). A multi-echo MPRAGE (MEMPR) sequence was used with the following parameters: TR/TE/TI = 2530/(1.64, 3.5, 5.36, 7.22, 9.08)/900 ms, flip angle = 7��, FOV = 256x256 mm, Slab thickness = 176 mm, Matrix = 256x256x176, Voxel size =1x1x1 mm, Number of echos = 5, Pixel bandwidth =650 Hz, Total scan time = 6 min. With 5 echoes, the TR, TI and time to encode partitions for the MEMPR are similar to that of a conventional MPRAGE, resulting in similar GM/WM/CSF contrast. Rest data was collected with single-shot full k-space echo-planar imaging (EPI) with ramp sampling correction using the intercomissural line (AC-PC) as a reference (TR: 2 s, TE: 29 ms, matrix size: 64x64, 32 slices, voxel size: 3x3x4 mm3). Slice Acquisition Order: Rest scan - collected in the Axial plane - series ascending - multi slice mode - interleaved MPRAGE - collected in the Sag plane - series interleaved - multi slice mode - single shot The following data are released for every participant: * Resting fMRI * Anatomical MRI * Phenotypic data for every participant including: gender, age, handedness and diagnostic information.
