Vascular Territory template and atlases in MNI space
收藏资源简介：
<strong>Data</strong> Sixteen subjects (mean age (sd): 69.6 (8.2); 37.5% female) were recruited to generate a high-resolution template. The cohort consists of twelve stroke-free, non-demented patients with the sporadic form of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), and similarly-aged healthy controls (n=4). Each participant underwent high-resolution MRI with a Siemens Magnetom Prisma 3T scanner (using a 32-channel head coil) as part of a separate study. The standardized protocol included a Multiecho T1-weighted (voxel size: 1x1x1 mm<sup>3</sup>; Repetition Time [TR]: 2510 ms), a 3D-FLAIR (voxel size: 0.9x0.9x0.9 mm<sup>3</sup>; TR: 5000 ms; TE: 356 ms), and a T2-weighted Turbo Spin Echo (voxel size: 0.5x0.5x2.0 mm<sup>3</sup>; TR: 7500 ms; TE: 84 ms) sequence. Scans were manually assessed to ensure no gross pathology was present, such as hemorrhage or silent brain infarcts. <strong>Template and territorial map creation</strong> We employed Advanced Normalization Tools (ANTs) for image processing (Avants et al., 2010, 2011) for creating a brain template based on multimodal information using T1, T2 and 3D-FLAIR sequences. After template creation, we smoothed the resulting templates (FSL; Gaussian smoothing, sigma = 1) and registered the resulting templates into MNI space, again using ANTs (Avants et al., 2011). Vascular territories were outlined on the right hemisphere in the T1-weighted atlas image and contain anatomically validated ACA, MCA, and PCA territories supratentorially. The right hemispheric map was then mirrored onto the left hemisphere to create a full-brain vascular territory map, which was manually assessed and corrected where necessary.
