Neuroimaging Systems

This page documents tools and projects related to software systems for dealing with neuroimaging data. The tools listed are some common visualization applications (some of which are general purpose). The projects listed either are generating a large amount of imaging data or developing systems to manage imaging data.

Tools

Volume Visualization

• FSLView
• MRIcron
• MedINRIA

Shape Visualization

• TrackVis
• ShapeViewer
• Paraview

Network Visualization

• Cytoscape
• Gephi
• ConnectomeViewer

Challenges

• Integration of volume, geometry, network, tabular data
• Query by subject, metadata, anatomy, or statistics
• Comparison across subject, modalities, metrics
• Coordinate systems, including rigid, affine, non-linear
• Memory and IO bottlenecks
