http://www.med.unc.edu/bric/ideagroup/free-softwares/abeat-a-toolbox-for-consistent-analysis-of-longitudinal-adult-brain-mri

A 4D adult brain extraction and analysis toolbox with graphical user interfaces to consistently analyze 4D adult brain MR images. Single-time-point images can also be analyzed. Main functions of the software include image preprocessing, 4D brain extraction, 4D tissue segmentation, 4D brain labeling, ROI analysis. Linux operating system (64 bit) is required. A computer with 8G memory (or more) is recommended for processing many images simultaneously. The graphical user interfaces and overall framework of the software are implemented in MATLAB. The image processing functions are implemented with the combination of C/C++, MATLAB, Perl and Shell languages. Parallelization technologies are used in the software to speed up image processing.

http://chronux.org

Open-source software package for the analysis of neural data. Chronux routines may be employed in the analysis of both point process and continuous data, ranging from preprocessing, exploratory and confirmatory analysis. The current release is implemented as a MATLAB library. Chronux offers several routines for computing spectra and coherences for both point and continuous processes. In addition, it also offers several general purpose routines that were found useful such as a routine for extracting specified segments from data, or binning spike time data with bins of a specified size. Since the data can be continuous valued, point process times, or point processes that are binned, methods that apply to all these data types are given in routines whose names end with ''''c'''' for continuous, ''''pb'''' for binned point processes, and ''''pt'''' for point process times. Thus, mtspectrumc computes the spectrum of continuous data, mtspectrumpb computes a spectrum for binned point processes, and mtspectrumpt compute spectra for data consisting of point process times. Hybrid routines are also available and similarly named - for instance coherencycpb computes the coherency between continuous and binned point process data.

http://www.research.va.gov/programs/tissue_banking/als/

A human tissue bank that collects, processes, stores and gives out research specimens for future scientific studies. Presently, the VABBB is obtaining neurologic tissue specimens from Veterans who suffer from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other illnesses that affect Veterans, along with relevant clinical data, essential for research. Currently, neither the cause nor prevention of ALS is known. Medical researchers are currently examining environmental, toxic, genetic, traumatic, medical, and occupational influences as possible contributors to the development and progression of ALS. Veterans have a higher risk of developing ALS compared with non-Veterans; however, the reasons for this higher risk are currently unknown. Any Veteran with ALS in the U.S. may enroll in the VABBB.

http://penglab.janelia.org/proj/v3d/V3D/About_V3D.html

V3D is a handy, fast, and versatile 3D/4D/5D Image Visualization & Analysis System for Bioimages & Surface Objects. It also provides many unique functions, is Open Source, supports a very simple and powerful plugin interface and thus can be extended & enhanced easily. V3D-Neuron is a powerful 3D neuron reconstruction, visualization, and editing software built on top of V3D. Both V3D and V3D-Neuron have recently been published in Nature Biotechnology (April, 2010), and Highlighted in Nature Methods (May, 2010), and Science News (April, 2010), etc. V3D is a cross-platform (Mac, Linux, and Windows) tool for visualizing large-scale (gigabytes, and 64-bit data) 3D image stacks and various surface data. It is also a container of powerful modules for 3D image analysis (cell segmentation, neuron tracing, brain registration, annotation, quantitative measurement and statistics, etc) and data management. This makes V3D suitable for various bioimage informatics applications, and a nice platform to develop new 3D image analysis algorithms for high-throughput processing. In short, V3D streamlines the workflow of visualization-assisted analysis. In the latest V3D development, it can render 5D (spatial-temporal) data directly in 3D volume-rendering mode; it supports convenient and interactive local and global 3D views at different scales. It even has a Matlab file IO toolbox. A user can now write his/her own plugins to take advantage of the V3D platform very easily.

http://spot.colorado.edu/~dubin/talks/agnosia.html

Compilation terms with definitions that describe altered states that are associated with brain injury (e.g., trauma, stroke, tumor) or with developmental deficits. Although the list deals with primarily CNS-associated disorders, in some cases the term does not distinguish between a CNS cause or a peripheral or neuromuscular cause. Terms that are primarily psychiatric diagnoses (e.g., schizophrenia) are not included. AGNOSIA is a general term for a loss of ability to recognize objects, people, sounds, shapes, or smells; that is, the inability to attach appropriate meaning to objective sense-data. It usually is used when the primary sense organ involved is not impaired. APHASIA is a general term relating to a loss of language ability. APRAXIA is a general term for disorders of practice. These conditions are usually caused by brain injury due to trauma, stroke and/or tumor. Many of these terms have two synonymous forms that differ in whether the word starts with a- or with dys- such as alexia and dyslexia. Here the a- form is usually defined and the other is noted as syn:, except when the dys- form is the more common usage. (If you cannot find a term in one of these forms, look for it in the other. All other synonyms are defined in both forms.) Sources: These definitions are paraphrased from definitions in a large number or print and online dictionaries. Thus this list is not meant to be considered my own, but rather is a compilation. Note: When a word appears in italics, that indicates it is defined elsewhere in this list.

http://hendrix.imm.dtu.dk/services/jerne/brede/

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 4th, 2023. A database of human data from functional neuroimaging scientific articles containing Talairach coordinates that provides data for novel information retrieval techniques and automated meta-analyses. Each article in this database is identified by a unique number: A WOBIB. Some of the structure of the Brede database is similar to the structure of the BrainMap database (Research Imaging Center, San Antonio). The database is inspired by the hierarchical structure of BrainMap with scientific articles (bib structures) on the highest level containing one or more experiments (exp structure, corresponding to a contrast in general linear model analyses), these in turn comprising one or more locations (loc structures). The information on the bib level (author, title, ...) is setup automatically from PubMed while the rest of the information is entered manually in a Matlab graphical user interface. On the loc level this includes the 3D stereotactic coordinates in either Talairach or MNI space, the brain area (functional, anatomical or cytoarchitectonic area) and magnitude values such as Z-score and P-value. On the exp level information such as modality, scanner and behavioral domain are recorded with external components (such as face recognition or kinetic boundaries) organized in a directed graph and marked up with Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) where possible. The database is distributed as part of the Brede neuroinformatics toolbox (hendrix.imm.dtu.dk/software/brede/) which also provides the functions to manipulate and analyze the data. The Brede Toolbox is a program package primarily written in Matlab. As of 2006/11, 186 papers with 586 experiments.
