Multi-modal brain magnetic resonance imaging database covering marmosets with a wide age range

Animals in vivo

The study included 216 healthy common marmosets (88 male and 128 female, mean weight: 357.1 ± 60.2 g) aged 0.8–10.3 (mean: 4.34 ± 2.56) years. Healthy marmosets were selected from individuals without weight loss or viral infection in the previous two weeks. The common marmosets were anesthetized, and their heads were immobilized prior to imaging.
