MALPEM v1.2 - Whole brain segmentation framework
This is the first public release of MALPEM. If you have any comments or encounter any problems please contact: [email protected]
The MALPEM distribution package consists of software and data files needed to perform a robust bias correction, brain extraction, and brain segmentation of a magnetic resonance brain image into 138 cortical and subcortical structures.
It was developed by Christian Ledig in the BioMedIA group at Imperial College London, UK.
Acknowledgement: Thanks to all co-authors mentioned below who contributed to the development of the employed methodology. Special thanks to Andreas Schuh for implementing the image registration and giving valuable advice on the distribution of this software package.
