1. General Description
This module uses our new probabilistic atlas of the human brain to segment 333 distinct ROIs per hemisphere on in vivo scans. Segmentation relies on a Bayesian algorithm and is thus robust against changes in MRIi pulse sequence (e.g., T1-weighted, T2-weighted, FLAIR, etc). Sample slices of the atlas and the segmentation of the sample subject "bert" are shown below:
