How Analyze was Used
“Authors used manual tracing of brain boundaries from MRI scans using various softwares such as Analyze … BRAINS … and FreeSurfer. Manual techniques such as planimetry or tracing methods require the investigator to delineate a brain region based on reliable anatomical landmarks, whilst the software package provides information on volume.”
