[Insight-users] OPEN DATA: 20 Digital Brain Phantoms for Validation

[Luis Ibanez]

   A set of 20 brain phantom segmentations have been
   made available by the BrainWeb project.


   Details on the data are described in the IEE TMI paper:


    "Twenty new digital brain phantoms for creation
         of validation image data bases"

The 20 datasets are distributed along with segmentation
of the following tissues:


Discrete Model: a single dataset with labels

Fuzzy Models:

   Background
   CSF
   Grey Matter
   White Matter
   Fat
   Muscle
   Muscle / Skin
   Skull
   Vessels
   Connectiv
   Dura
   Marrow
