[Insight-users] Brain Images in MetaImage format available

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Buu,

We put a set of three Brain images in MetaImage format on
the ftp server. These images were created from originals downloaded
from the BrainWeb project:

        http://www.bic.mni.mcgill.ca/brainweb/

You can read these images directly with the GaussianFilter example
program.

In order to get the images, please go to the ITK home page and
follow the link to "Data". That will bring you to:

       http://www.itk.org/HTML/Data.htm

You will find some discussion about file formats and around  the
middle of the page a link to the ftp server :

       ftp://public.kitware.com/pub/itk/Data/

if you follow the "BrainWeb" subdirectory you will find three .tgz files.
Each one containing a MRI image. They are T1, T2 and PD MRIs.  
Each .tgz file contains a .txt file with the original description of the
image from the BrainWeb project. a .mha file which is the
MetaImage text header describing the image and a .raw file which
is the binaray data of the image.

Please let us know if this images work (or not  :-) )   for you.


  Thanks

    Luis

BTW you may find interesting also the data of the Head
from the VisibleHuman which is available in the same ftp
site.
