BrainMap: A Database of Functional Neuroanatomy Derived from Human Brain Images

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA241263 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The goal of the BrainMap project is to promote efficient compilation, analysis, and dissemination of the rapidly growing body of information about the functional organization of the human brain which can be provided by medical imaging techniques such as PET and MRI. We have developed highly quantitative image analysis tools for PET which provide spatial localization of brain function in a standardized spatial frame AC-PC reference frame. Database strategies have been developed to specifically address the needs of brain mapping. Most of our efforts during this quarter were devoted to the Macintosh version of BrainMap. Software development is proceeding in a timely fashion, and at present we see no major problems with completing this portion of the project on time.
