The beta of this atlas (which includes insula) is now here:
ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist/freesurfer/atlases
copy the two files to your $FREESURFER_HOME/average directory, then to use, include this on the recon-all -cortparc commandline:
-gcs curvature.buckner40.filled.desikan_killiany.2009-01-31-beta.gcs

Hi Carl,
we have a beta version ready now that people can use. In mid Feb we will have a neuroanatomist doublecheck the labels and officially distribute them.
cheers, Bruce

Hi Jeff - read the thread below starting with my Sept 8 2008 email.
Bruce - what is the status on the insula label for aparc?
carl
Hello all,
Thank you for your quick replies to my previous posts. One more
question. I am wondering what the difference is and if I should be taking average thickness measurements for cortical regions from lh.aparc.a2005s.stats or lh.aparc.stats. I think the main difference is that lh.aparc.a2005s.stats was made with ?h.atlas2005_simple.gcs and lh.aparc.stats was made with ?h.curvature.buckner40.filled.desikan_killiany.2007-06-20gcs. Which one is more accurate? I am using freesurfer 3.0.5.
Thank you, Jeff Sadino

Hi Dara,
there is an insula label in the works (*lots* of people have asked this question). Ron: any updates on the insula label?
thanks Bruce

Thanks very much for the detailed info Karl (and Doug and Bruce)!
My primary ROI is ACC, so we'll probably use Aparc with the cingulate divisions. I'll have to review the paper to see if the anatomic bases of the divisions are described. I'm surprised, though, that there is not an insula label, and I'm wondering why it would not be possible to use ROI labels from the two annotation schemes to examine activation in group
data
(i.e., ACC labels from aparc and insula from aparc2005).
best, dara

for what it's worth we label the cc now explicitly in the aseg, which is
certainly more accurate than the aparc used to be.
Thanks for the detailed answer though Carl!
