Anatomical measurements of formalin-fixed human brains

The dataset includes the quantitative data collected and results from statistical analyses conducted, for a research study on the anatomical investigation of the interthalamic adhesion in formalin-fixed adult human brains at the University of Pretoria. The sample was dissected and data collected from photographs of the region of interest analysed with ImageJ, a scientific image analysis application. Statistical analysis was conducted using the application SPSS. The data collected included prevalence, shape, location within the third ventricle, superior-inferior length, anterior-posterior length and surface area of the interthalamic adhesion, as well as surface area of the third ventricle.

本数据集包含比勒陀利亚大学开展的一项研究中收集的定量数据及统计分析结果，该研究针对福尔马林固定的成人人类大脑丘脑间粘连（interthalamic adhesion）进行了解剖学调查。研究样本经解剖处理后，通过科学图像分析应用ImageJ对感兴趣区域的照片进行分析以提取数据；统计分析则采用SPSS软件完成。收集的数据涵盖丘脑间粘连的患病率、形态、在第三脑室中的位置、上下径长度、前后径长度及表面积，以及第三脑室的表面积。
