Microscopic resolution diffusion magnetic resonance images of a normal adult Sprague Dawley rat brain

Anatomical reference volume of a normal adult male Sprague Dawley rat brain, consisting of high resolution, contrast enhanced, structural magnetic resonance images (sMRI; 39 μm isotropic voxels) and diffusion tensor images (DTI, 78 μm isotropic voxels). Version 1.01 features a standardized orientation of the volumetric datasets according to NIfTI-1 format defaults, allowing users to read Waxholm Space coordinates directly from the data volume using publicly available software (e.g. ITK-SNAP and MBAT). For details, see “Release notes v1.01”. This dataset is hosted on [NITRC.org](https://www.nitrc.org/frs/?group_id=1081) and includes: * [T2*-weighted gradient echo image](https://www.nitrc.org/frs/download.php/9423/WHS_SD_rat_T2star_v1.01.nii.gz) at 39 μm original resolution (1024x512x512 voxels) * [Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) map](https://www.nitrc.org/frs/download.php/9430/WHS_SD_rat_ADC_v1.01.nii.gz) resampled to 39 μm resolution (1024x512x512 voxels) * [DTI b0 image](https://www.nitrc.org/frs/download.php/9431/WHS_SD_rat_DTI_512_v1.01.zip) resampled to 39 μm resolution (1024x512x512 voxels) * [Diffusion weighted image map](https://www.nitrc.org/frs/download.php/9429/WHS_SD_rat_DWI_v1.01.nii.gz) resampled to 39 μm resolution (1024x512x512 voxels) * [Fractional Anisotropy (FA) map](https://www.nitrc.org/frs/download.php/9428/WHS_SD_rat_FA_v1.01.nii.gz) resampled to 39 μm resolution (1024x512x512 voxels) * [Color FA map](https://www.nitrc.org/frs/download.php/9424/WHS_SD_rat_FA_color_v1.01.nii.gz) resampled to 39 μm resolution (1024x512x512 voxels), combining the FA and primary eigenvector to 24-bit color RGB where intensity is given by relative FA value and color is assigned to directions (RGB to xyz respectively) **How to cite:** Please cite these anatomical reference volumes by referring to the Waxholm Space atlas of the Sprague Dawley rat brain RRID: SCR_017124, and cite the publications (see Related publications below).
