Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Understanding the architecture of the white matter of the human brain is central to neuroscience and clinics. Despite major advances in tractography and white matter dissection, integrating these complementary techniques remains a longstanding challenge. Here, we introduce BraDiPho (Brain Dissection Photogrammetry), an open-access resource of high-resolution, fully textured 3D digital models of layer-by-layer white matter microdissection. The models are registered to their radiological space, allowing direct alignment of dissection and neuroimaging data. BraDiPho includes eight hemispheres, enriched with sample tractography bundles, anatomical annotations, and cortical atlases, establishing a unified framework for multimodal analyses. Four case studies demonstrate how BraDiPho supports anatomically grounded investigations, moving beyond classical side-by-side comparisons toward accurate integration of ex vivo dissection and in vivo tractography. All data, tools, and scripts are openly available, enabling customized research and educational applications. BraDiPho offers a framework to support multimodal investigations of human brain connectivity in both research and educational contexts.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
