June

• Brain Biomechanics Imaging Resources now has 56 datasets available for download.
  • 10 subjects from the Henry Jackson Foundation, imaged with tagged magnetic resonance.
  • 36 subjects from the University of Delaware, imaged with high resolution magnetic resonance elastography at multiple frequencies (30Hz, 50Hz, 70Hz).
  • 10 subjects from Washington University in St. Louis, imaged with magnetic resonance elastography at multiple frequencies (20Hz, 30Hz, 50Hz, 70Hz, 90Hz).
  • All data includes structural magnetic resonance images (T1-w, T2-w) and diffusion weighted images.
  • The structural images have been processed with SLANT-MACRUISE. The diffusion images with TORTOISE.
  • Site information and subject details can be found in the available BBIR documents.
  • Additional information is available in our related publications:
    • "Integrating Linear Viscoelastic Material Properties Derived from Magnetic Resonance Elastography into Subject-Specific Brain Models"  (doi)
    • "MR imaging of human brain mechanics in vivo: new measurements to facilitate the development of computational models of brain injury"  (doi)
