BrainWeb-based multimodal models of 20 normal brains
This project was initially inspired by "BrainWeb: 20 Anatomical Models of 20 Normal Brains"
However there are a number of generally useful tools, image processing &
display functions included in this project. For example, this includes
volshow() for interactive comparison of multiple 3D volumes,
get_file() for caching data URLs, and register() for image
coregistration.

Transform
Convert raw image data:
- Siemens Biograph mMR resolution (~2mm) & dimensions (127, 344, 344)
- PET/T1/T2/uMap intensities
- PET defaults to FDG intensity ratios; could use e.g. Amyloid instead
- randomised structure for PET/T1/T2
- $t (1 + g [2 G_sigma(r) - 1])$, where
- r =
rand(127, 344, 344)$\in [0, 1)$, - Gaussian smoothing sigma = 1,
- g = 1 for PET; 0.75 for MR, and
- t = the PET or MR piecewise constant phantom
- r =
- $t (1 + g [2 G_sigma(r) - 1])$, where
