Claim 7:
8. A system for mapping brain perivascular spaces using clinical data, comprising:
a memory to store one or more images of a brain of a patient;
a processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
obtain a combined image of the brain of the patient, the combined image generated by combining a first image and a second image of the brain of the patient, the first image including a first contrast, the second image including a second contrast, the combined image including a third contrast, the third contrast being higher than the first contrast and the second contrast,
determine the brain perivascular spaces within the combined image of the brain of the patient, and
generate a three-dimensional (3-D) map of the brain perivascular spaces; and

a display configured to display or render an image of the brain perivascular spaces of the brain of the patient to an operator.
