Data from: Multi-modal ultra-high resolution structural 7-Tesla MRI data repository

Structural brain data is key for the understanding of brain function and
networks, i.e., connectomics. Here we present data sets available from the
‘atlasing of the basal ganglia (ATAG)’ project, which provides ultra-high
resolution 7Tesla (T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans from young,
middle-aged, and elderly participants. The ATAG data set includes
whole-brain and reduced field-of-view MP2RAGE and T2*-weighted scans of
the subcortex and brainstem with ultra-high resolution at a sub-millimeter
scale. The data can be used to develop new algorithms that help building
high-resolution atlases both relevant for the basic and clinical
neurosciences. Importantly, the present data repository may also be used
to inform the exact positioning of electrodes used for
deep-brain-stimulation in patients with Parkinson’s disease and
neuropsychiatric diseases.
