This study utilized living human medical imaging data, including computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. A Lightspeed VCT CT scanner (GE Healthcare, Chicago, Illinois, United States) was used for continuous axial tomography of the skull with 0.625-mm slice thickness and 0.35-mm in-plane resolution, scanning parameters of 120 kV and 205.50 mAs, and a scanning matrix of 512 × 512 in size. MRI scans of the corresponding region were acquired using a 3.0T unit (Ingenia 3.0T CX; Philips, Amsterdam, Netherlands). Post-contrast T1-weighted axial images (1-mm-thick slices) were merged with CT images for a better bone-soft tissue contrast. Imaging data, including CT data of the skull and cervical vertebrae, MRI of tumors, and CT angiography of the intracranial arteries, were obtained, saved in the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine format, and exported.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
