Resumen:
Voxel-based morphometry (VBM) is a technique for neuroimage analysis. The aim of this technique is to detect morphologic differences in the brain anatomy at a global level, based on voxel-wise statistics. Since its description in 1999 [1], many studies used this technique, becoming one of the most popular processes in neuroimage analysis finding differences between groups. Despite VBM is largely employed in the study of the human brain, its use for another species is not very popular. There are some previous researches studying morphologic differences in mice using this technique. But defining a workflow andidentifying the suitable parameters to apply this technique is a challenge, mainly because any variation on them has a great impact on the results of the study. In this work, we have contrasted different VBM strategies comparing mice MRIs that have been subjected to different treatments
