Functional Description
Clinica is a software platform for multimodal brain image analysis in clinical research studies. It aims at integrating a comprehensive set of processing tools for the main neuroimaging modalities: MRI (anatomical, functional, diffusion), PET and EEG/MEG. For each modality, it allows to easily extract various types of features (regional measures, parametric maps, surfaces, curves, networks) that can be subsequently used as input of machine learning, statistical modeling, morphometry or network analysis methods. Processing pipelines are based on combinations of freely available tools developed by the community and in-house developments. It provides an integrated data management system to store raw and processing data.
