| BrainSuite is a magnetic resonance (MR) image analysis tool designed for identifying tissue types and surfaces in MR images of the human brain. The major functionality of these tools is to extract and parameterize the inner and outer surfaces of the cerebral cortex and to segment and label gray and white matter structures. BrainSuite also provides several tools for [[http://brainsuite.org/visualization|visualizing]] and [[http://brainsuite.org/interaction|interacting]] with the data. | BrainSuite is collaboratively developed between David Shattuck at the [[http://bmap.ucla.edu|Ahmanson-Lovelace Brain Mapping Center]] at UCLA and Richard Leahy in the [[http://neuroimage.usc.edu|Biomedical Imaging Group]], in collaboration with the [[http://www.loni.usc.edu/|Laboratory of Neuro Imaging]], at USC.
