Cresyl Violet Stained Brain Sections for XDP and Control Cohort

Raw histological images of cresyl violet stained brain sections from a subset of control and X-linked Dystonia Parkinsonism (XDP) patients. The 11.1 GB dataset was uploaded by Adelie Tan in May 2026 to support the wider research community. It is associated with a study on regional and compartmental changes in striatal degeneration.

Use Cases

• Training image segmentation models based on histological staining patterns.
• Conducting quantitative neuropathological analysis based on stained tissue sections.
• Comparing neuroanatomical structures between XDP patients and control subjects.
• Developing digital pathology tools for analyzing striatal degeneration.

Strengths

• Dataset size is 11.1 GB, indicating a substantial collection of high-resolution images.
• Data is shared under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license, facilitating reuse.
• Images are directly associated with a specific, peer-reviewed research study.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
