hoffmanphantom {catsim}

An example fMRI phantom

Description

A 128 \times 128 activation map for a slice of an fMRI phantom and an anatomical reference.

Usage

data(hoffmanphantom)

Format

a 128 \times 128 \times 2 array with the first slice an activation map for an MRI phantom and the second an anatomical overlay. NA values are outside the surface. The activation map (hoffmanphantom[,,1]) is 1 if activated, 0 otherwise. The second layer (hoffmanphantom[,,2]) indicates the anatomical structure. Approximately 3.8 percent of the pixels are activated in this slice.
