Research - Useful Information

• About MRI imaging in general with loads of very useful links: MRC CBU Imaging home page

• Another site with helpful resources, particularly for people new to fMRI: fMRI for newbies

• Helpful site whenever you're struggling with statistics: statistics HELL- P

Research - Useful Software

• An easy-to-use program to perform simple ANOVAs: ezANOVA

• The program MRIcroN (which includes npm) that we use for voxelwise statistical lesion analyses and data viewing

• The set of Matlab scripts NiiStat for voxelwise statistical lesion analyses. This set of scripts offers some additional options to perform voxelwise statistical lesion analyses (particularly the option to include covariates) compared to the program npm that comes with MRIcroN

• The Clinical Toolbox for SPM for easy spatial normalisation of lesioned brains. This toolbox includes a CT template and spatial tissue priors suitable for elderly populations, both described here

• The Clusterize Toolbox for SPM for easy and fast semi-automated lesion demarcation. This toolbox was originally described here and its performance in stroke patient data was evaluated here

• Software to calculate the Center of Cancellation in spatial neglect, described here

• The easy-to-use and versatile program MorePower to perform a-priori and post-hoc power analyses, described here
