Common Atlas Format and 3D Brain Atlas Reconstructor: Infrastructure for Constructing 3D Brain Atlases

17.04.2012

One of the challenges of modern neuroscience is integrating massive data of different types derived in the studies of individual animals. This task requires a common spatial reference provided by brain atlases. The first atlases were two-dimensional presentations of structural data. Since brain is not flat, recently 3D brain atlases (computer based 3D models of brain structures) started to appear, to provide scientists with easier navigation within non-standard anatomical planes, and to ...
