This module offers a set of algorithms to biomedical image data preparation, which is focused on the neonate and fetal MRI analysis. The methods used are optimized to structural MRI images, namely T2 and T1. Further improvements are under development stage in order to address new imaging modalities (e.g. diffusion-weighted images). The general procedure assumes that the MRI image was already reconstructed in a volume representation and also brain extracted. <br />
<br />
Basically, there are two different modules: '''BabyBrainPreparation''' and '''BabyBrainSegmentation''', which each of them are optimized for a specific set of image processing. More details are elucidated below.<br />

{{documentation/{{documentation/version}}/module-section|Use Cases}}<br />
'''Baby Brain Preparation:'''<br />
* Use Case 1: Image preparation to further tissue segmentation<br />
**The structural MRI images (fetal or neonate) often have a strong level of image artefacts (e.g. noise and grey level inhomogeneity), hence a previous data preparation is needed for further segmentation process.<br />
* Use Case 2: Volume rendering<br />
**Image preprocessing frequently increases the quality of volume renderings<br />
<br />
'''Baby Brain Segmentation:'''<br />
* Use Case 1: Brain morphological information<br />
** The measurement of morphological features in brain images (e.g. volume of white or grey matter, brain atrophy, etc) are commonly used in several clinical studies.<br />
