Abstract
Grey matter, white matter and cerebrospinal volume in the
human brain were measured using magnetic resonance image
analysis software BRAINS. Ten volunteers were scanned in the MR
sequence (3D-SPGR; 1.5-mm slice thickness and T2 images; 3mm
slice thickness). Two operators obtained ten volume measures of
grey matter,white matter and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the
intracranial box, frontal box, temporal box, parietal box and
occipital box. The same data set of ten scans was segmented and
the volumes measured on a second occasion by one operator using
the same procedure. The interoperator and intraoperator
reliabilities for measures of the three brain tissues were very
good, with reliability coefficients (intraclass correlation
coefficients) ranging between 0.971 and 0.999. The segmentation
and measurement are useful for volumetric studies in the human
brain using BRAINS.
