IIT Madras released 5,132 high-resolution 3D images of fetal brains, a pioneering effort using cutting-edge brain mapping technology. This open-source dataset, Dharani, aids researchers in understanding fetal brain development and related conditions like autism.

The article from MSN discusses a groundbreaking development at IIT Madras where researchers have created the first-ever 3D images of the foetal brain. This initiative, led by Prof. Mohanasankar Sivaprakasam, aims to enhance the understanding of brain development in utero. The project utilizes advanced imaging techniques to produce detailed 3D visualizations, which could significantly aid in the early detection of developmental anomalies and improve prenatal care. The technology involves sophisticated algorithms to reconstruct high-resolution images from standard ultrasound scans, offering insights into brain structures that were previously difficult to observe. This could potentially revolutionize how medical professionals assess foetal health, providing a clearer picture of brain development stages and helping in the diagnosis of conditions like microcephaly or ventriculomegaly.
