This dataset gathers synthetic T2-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) images generated using FaBiAN, a Fetal Brain magnetic resonance Acquisition Numerical phantom that simulates fast spin echo (FSE) sequences of the developing fetal brain throughout gestation. This dataset is associated with the following paper: Lajous H. et al. (2022) A Fetal Brain magnetic resonance Acquisition Numerical phantom (FaBiAN). Scientific Reports. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-10335-4 This dataset provides images simulated by FaBiAN based on the specific implementation of FSE sequences by two MR vendors (Half-Fourier Acquisition Single-shot Turbo spin Echo (HASTE), Siemens Healthcare, and Single-Shot Fast Spin Echo (SS-FSE), GE Healthcare) at 1.5 T or 3 T. Automated brain tissue annotations of the low-resolution series and super-resolution (SR) reconstructions are also included.
