| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the human brain, there is a standard brain in which brain region names correspond to brain coordinates. However, there is no practical one in the mouse brain. Region of interest (ROI) has been arbitrary and reproduction of other researchers' ROIs were difficult. Allen Institute released 3D-reconstruction data of the mouse brain in 2015. This study aimed to make it available for MRI analysis. As a result, we constructed a flexible template of the mouse brain. The total number of brain regions is variable according to the research purpose. New ROIs can be prepared using gene expression and neuro-projection data provided by the Allen Institute. Sharing among researchers is straightforward.
