Scientists compare brain scans to real brains to improve medical imaging

NCT ID NCT02455284

Summary

This study aimed to check how accurate a special type of brain scan is at mapping the brain's internal wiring. Researchers compared scan images from living volunteers with detailed examinations of donated brain tissue after death. The goal was to make this scanning technique more reliable for future research into brain diseases.
