MIAKAT

MIAKAT™ is a fully quantitative suite of analysis tools for PET neuroimaging data. The software includes functionality for motion correction of dynamic image sequences, neuoranatomical parcellation of regions of interest (ROIs), blood/plasma input function modelling and tracer kinetic modelling for regional or parametric image analyses.

MIAKAT™ is implemented in MATLAB™, and has a central graphical user interface that facilitates “point and click” operation. Users can run preconfigured standard analysis workflows, or bespoke pipelines and processes to suit their needs. The software is distributed as MATLAB™ m-code and is free for non-commercial use. Users must agree to a license agreement before downloading the software.

MIAKAT™ runs on Linux and Mac OS X operating systems and requires MATLAB™, SPM12, and FSL5.0.4 or newer.
