   Proposal Description:
   We are developing a platform for measuring brain region volumes using the GIF     algorithm developed by UCL in London.  This is a commercial venture and we seek   permission to use some data to assist in validating our product.                    The project uses an algorithm called GIF to propagate human brain region        segmentations to clinical images.  The measured volumes are reported to the       clinician and help to inform a diagnosis of dementia and the particular class     of dementia that the patient is suffering from.  We need test data to check       that the algorithm is robust.   If we can compare our tissue volume               measurements with the data set then this could be very valuable.  Also, if        diagnostic information is available then we will be able to correlate our         results with the diagnostic information.
