The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

CTseg significantly outperformed this baseline for segmentation and normalisation, showed stronger TBV agreement, and achieved comparable TIV agreement.

C2weakest assumption

That the MRI-derived silver standard provides a sufficiently accurate reference for true tissue boundaries visible in CT images, and that the paired MR/CT scans used for validation are representative of typical clinical CT data without preprocessing.

C3one line summary

CTseg delivers accurate CT brain segmentation, spatial normalization, and volumetrics that outperform direct MRI-tool application on CT scans, validated on paired MR/CT data.
