First of all I had another account (but only 32 posts) called "rachel_grr". I wish I could somehow change the username or transfer it to this new account.

Anyways, I've been wanting to get an MRI of my brain for a while to sort of give myself a chance to validate how I feel. I've been reading about structures like the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis, or right putamen, or certain cortical thicknesses that seem to differ based on gender.

Fast forward to a few weeks ago that I was able to get a free MRI of my brain! It was for a study they had and were looking for participants. Anyways, I've been searching online and couldn't find any good clear images I can use to compare to my brain for the few images I got. Would anyone know of any that are free and can link me? I asked the researcher to give me the image slices of my brain that would show the BSTc the best (if someone may even be good enough to identify and compare it from there). Okay I don't see an option for me to attach images so maybe I can add a link to them later.

Thank you!!

Don't worry Rachel as very soon an official greeter will welcome you and tell you that if you desire so, they can link your old account posts to this account.

I think you may need to amass 15 posts before you are able to add attachments or links.
