Experimental studies in mouse models offer the opportunity to combine in-vivo longitudinal high-field MRI and histological analyses. However, automatic MRI tools for processing rodent data to avoid manual processing are lacking. We proposed an automatic pipeline to perform systematic analyses on large murine cohorts with longitudinal data. We first applied artifacts correction as bias correction to optimize the subsequent steps. We then registered masks of regions of interest (ROIs) for our analyses onto each subject from which we extracted the quantitative data. This pipeline provides a way of quickly analyzing ROI regardless of disease models or the MRI sequence.
