3D interactive atlas of two mouse brains, 129S1/SvImJ and C57Bl/6J. The aim of this resource is to enhance comparative morphometric analyses and stereotactic surgical procedures in mice. These representations of the murine brain and skull, in conjunction with the resource''s development of a new, more dynamic master coordinate system, provide improved accuracy with respect to targeting CNS structures during surgery compared with previous systems. The interactive three-dimensional nature of these atlases also provide users with stereotactic information necessary to perform accurate off-axis surgical procedures, as is commonly required for experiments such as in vivo micro-electroporation. In addition, three-dimensional analysis of the brain and skull shape in C57Bl, 129Sv, CD1, and additional murine strains, suggests that a stereotactic coordinate system based upon the lambda and rostral confluence of the sinuses at the sagittal midline, provides improved accuracy compared with the traditional lambdabregma landmark system. These findings demonstrate the utility of developing highly accurate and robust three-dimensional representations of the murine brain and skull, in which experimental outputs can be directly compared using a unified coordinate system.

http://www.loni.usc.edu/ICBM/Downloads/Downloads_DTI-81.shtml

A stereotaxic probabilistic white matter atlas that fuses DTI-based white matter information with an anatomical template (ICBM-152). This atlas is based on probabilistic tensor maps obtained from 81 normal subjects acquired under an initiative of the International Consortium of Brain Mapping (ICBM). The subjects were normal right-handed adults ranging from 18 to 59 years of age. A hand-segmented white matter parcellation map was created from this averaged map. This map can be used for automated white matter parcellation. The precision of the affine-based image normalization and automated parcellation was measured for a group of normal subjects using manually defined anatomical landmarks. The raw diffusion-weighted images (DWIs) were first co-registered to one of the least diffusion-weighted images and corrected for subject motion with 6-mode rigid transformation with Automated Image Registgration (AIR). The average of all DWIs (aDWI) was calculated and used for a DTI-based anatomic image. For anatomical images to drive the normalization process, aDWIs were used. These images were normalized to the template (ICBM-152) using a 12-mode affine or 4th order polynomial non-linear transformation of AIR. The transformation matrix was then applied to the calculated diffusion tensor field. In the white matter parcellation map (WMPM), deep white matter regions were manually segmented into various anatomic structures based on fiber orientation information.

https://neuropsychological-assessment-tests.com/sanzen-tower-london-test

CATs Tower of London test is a free, computer-based software test originally developed by Shallice (1982) to investigate problem solving in subjects with damage to the frontal lobes. The CATs Tower of London Test comes with one preprogrammed test along with extensive normative data for that test. You can also create a test using your design. Briefly, subjects are required to move colored beads from a window on the left (working area) until they achieve the arrangement in the window on the right (goal position). Subjects are instructed to try to achieve the goal arrangement in as few moves as possible. The software contains a Tower of London test. The test contains trials with 3 beads and 3 pegs, 4 beads and 4 pegs, and 5 beads and 5 pegs. You can use the Setup screen to create a test using your design. A test can contain 3, 4, and 5 bead problems with varying number of moves required for the optimal solution. In Shallice's initial investigation using the Tower of London, patients with damage to the left anterior frontal lobe demonstrated impaired planning (i.e., greater number of moves required for solution). Patients with damage to the right anterior, and left or right posterior areas of the frontal lobes were not impaired. Thus, results from this initial study provided support for the view that the left anterior frontal lobe area is involved in the planning required for solving the Tower of London test. Recent studies using neuroimaging techniques support this notion. Studies using regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) imaging indicate an involvement of the left frontal lobes in the planning required for successfully completing the Tower of London puzzle. Studies of patients with damage to the frontal lobes indicate less cortical specificity, but are consistent with the view that the frontal lobes are involved in the planning required for solving this puzzle.

Software toolbox for resting state HRF estimation and deconvolution analysis. Matlab and Python toolbox that implements HRF estimation and deconvolution from resting state BOLD signal. Used to retrieve optimal lag between events and HRF onset, as well as HRF shape. Once that HRF has been retrieved for each voxel/vertex, it can be deconvolved from time series or one can map shape parameters everywhere in brain and use it as pathophysiological indicator. Input can be 2D GIfTI, 3D or 4D NIfTI images, but also on time series matrices/vectors. Output are three HRF shape parameters for each voxel/vertex, plus deconvolved time series, and number of retrieved pseudo events. All can be written back to GIfTI or NIfTI images.

http://www.nitrc.org/projects/rmdtitemplate/

A population-specific DTI template for young adolescent Rhesus Macaque (Macaca mulatta) monkeys using 271 high-quality scans. Using such a large number of animals in generating a template allows it to account for variability in the species. Their DTI template is based on the largest number of animals ever used in generating a computational brain template. It is anticipated that their DTI template will help facilitate voxel-based and tract specific WM analyses in non-human primate species, which in turn may increase our understanding of brain function, development, and evolution.

http://www.bic.mni.mcgill.ca/ServicesAtlases/Macaque

A reference atlas of standard macaque monkey magnetic resonance images. The template brain volume that offers a common stereotaxic reference frame to localize anatomical and functional information in an organized and reliable way for comparison across individual macaque monkeys and studies. We have used MRI volumes from a group of 25 normal adult macaque monkeys (18 Macaca fascicularis, 7 Macaca mulatta) to create the individual atlas. Thus, the atlas does not rely on the anatomy of a single subject, but instead depends on nonlinear normalization of numerous macaque brains mapped to an average template image that is faithful to the location of anatomical structures. Tools for registering a native MRI to the MNI macaque atlas can be found in the Software section. Viewing the atlas and associated volumes online requires Java browser support. Additionally, you may download the atlas and associated files in your chosen format.

http://www.genepaint.org/MapP56_01.htm

Abbreviated reference atlas for the P56 mouse. All sections were nissl stained and digitized. To assist in the initial identification of sites of gene expression sites, maps of brains are available for E15.5, P7 and the adult. These maps depict the boundaries of major brain regions (cortex, thalamus, striatum, globus pallidus, ventral striatum, septum, basal forebrain, hippocampus, midbrain, pons, medulla, cerebellum) and also show the more prominent nerve tracts. Maps are most efficiently used by placing the window depicting the map of interest next to the gene expression image. Browsing is permitted between planes of sectioning thus allowing the most appropriate plane to be selected. Abbreviations are found in a list accessed by clicking the see abbreviation link at the bottom of each map. Alternatively, passing the cursor directly across the abbreviation on the map will result in the appearance of the appropriate term in the rider on top of the map panel. The annotation of anatomical details such as brain nuclei is currently beyond the scope of the GenePaint database. Hence, such information on the anatomy of the brain and embryo should be obtained from published atlases of mouse anatomy (Kaufman, 1995; Paxinos and Franklin, 2001; Jacobowitz and Abbott, 1997; Schambra et al., 1992; Valverde1998).

Standard brain atlas of the honeybee presented as an interactive three-dimensional surface model with integrated neuron and neuronal tracts. The standard atlas was created as an average-shape atlas of 22 neuropils, calculated from 20 individual immunostained whole-mount bee brains. After correction for global size and positioning differences by repeatedly applying an intensity-based nonrigid registration algorithm, a sequence of average label images was created. The Honeybee, Apis mellifera has been studied extensively with respect to its sensory and neural capacities in navigation, communication, visual and olfactory learning and memory processing. The goal is to integrate the entirety of information into a Virtual Atlas of the Honeybee Brain. This common spatial reference map will potentiate the representation of structural and functional data obtained in different experiments and from different individuals.
