Hi Shashwath,

The label "hippocampus" was used in the tail of the hippocampus, where
the manual labelers (who labeled the data our automated method is
trained on) stopped trying to distinguish between the different
subfields. If you want to compute the volume of the whole hippocampus,
then you should take this in account - otherwise you can probably
ignore it.

Hope this helps,

Koen
