Sammba-MRI

Sammba-MRI provides processing and analysis of small mammal brain MRI data to support structural and functional multimodal neuroimaging studies, including investigations of neurodegenerative disease and therapeutic interventions.


Key Features:

  • Flexible Data Processing: Offers a framework to apply and adapt existing neuroimaging methods specifically for small mammal MRI datasets.
  • Scriptable Workflows: Implements scriptable analysis workflows enabling automated transitions from raw data conversion to downstream multimodal processing.
  • Multimodal Imaging Capabilities: Supports structural and functional MRI modalities and integration across modalities for comprehensive analysis of small mammal brains.

Scientific Applications:

  • Neurodegenerative Disease Research: Enables analysis of structural and functional MRI metrics in small mammals to study mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases.
  • Therapeutic Evaluation: Facilitates assessment of therapeutic interventions in preclinical studies through multimodal MRI comparisons.

Methodology:

Implements Python-based, scriptable workflows that integrate existing neuroimaging methods to perform raw data conversion and multimodal MRI processing.
