Hi BOBO,
There are 2 popular atlases the Talairach (which was developed from a single female brain) and the MNI (which has been developed on an average of several adult brains). MNI coordinates is basically co-ordinates of the MNI space and extremely popular and well-used in the neuroimaging modality.
Here are couple of useful links:
