ANTs - Advanced Normalization Tools
Advanced Normalization Tools (ANTs) extracts information from complex datasets that include imaging.
It heavily relies on ITK.
SPM - Statistical Parametric Mapping
Statistical Parametric Mapping refers to the construction and assessment of spatially extended statistical processes used to test hypotheses about functional imaging data. These ideas have been instantiated in software that is called SPM.
The SPM software package has been designed for the analysis of brain imaging data sequences. The sequences can be a series of images from different cohorts, or time-series from the same subject. The current release is designed for the analysis of fMRI, PET, SPECT, EEG and MEG.
FSL - Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Brain Software Library
FSL is a comprehensive library of analysis tools for FMRI, MRI and DTI brain imaging data.
FreeSurfer
An open source software suite for processing and analyzing (human) brain MRI images.
MRtrix3
MRtrix3 provides a set of tools to perform various types of diffusion MRI analyses, from various forms of tractography through to next-generation group-level analyses.
