Hi Lemon

Please see the mailing list archive here for some guidance (the answer is the same for infants): https://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg56037.html

I couldn't see the UNC link you provided. But the basic steps for creating your own atlas are:

-label every voxel of the brain in Freeview (for every subject to be used in the atlas)

-run mri_ca_train

-run rebuild_gca_atlas.csh script in $FREESURFER_HOME/bin

Subject: [Freesurfer] Infant Atlas

Hi experts,

We are presently involved in a project for analyzing MRI data of 1-3 year old children using FreeSurfer. We cannot find a correct infant atlas. From online search, I know that an infant atlas is being developed which will be integrated into FreeSurfer in the future. （link

）

Can I know when this will be available? If not soon, is there any other methods for us to generate an infant(kid) atlas?

Also I know there are infant atlas from UNC(http://www.med.unc.edu/bric/ideagroup/free-softwares/unc-infant-0-1-2-atlases), how can I use this atlas in Freesurfer?

Best,

Lemon
