ClinSeg: Robust Brain Segmentation for Clinically Acquired Pediatric MRI

Clinical brain MRIs from pediatric health systems represent a viable resource for modeling early neurodevelopmental trajectories and studying neurodevelopmental risk in real-world populations, and a robust segmentation approach tailored to early-life clinical MRIs with variable orientation, resolution, and contrast is...

A Multiverse Approach to Brain Age Prediction: Exploring the Impact of Modality, Bias Adjustment, and Atlas

Brain age, an individual’s age predicted from neuroimaging data, is a promising biomarker of brain health. Yet brain age estimates may depend on methodological choices within the prediction pipeline. We used a multiverse approach to systematically investigate effects of data modality, bias-adjustment method, and brain...

Expanding the toolkit: OPMs for studying the developing brain

Abstract Tremendous maturation in brain structure and function, underlying very rapid cognitive development, occurs in the early years of life, yet it has been difficult to obtain reliable measures of brain function over this period. A major challenge has been the difficulty of acquiring reliable neuroimaging data from...

Evaluating the Generalization of Neuroimaging Foundation Models on African Brain MRI

It is suggested that these frozen neuroimaging foundation models are insufficient for fine-grained diagnostic classification in small, non-western clinical cohorts, motivating parameter-efficient adaptation and broader multi-site external validation for equitable deployment in global health settings.
