We structured the Pediatric Atlas to be like an on-ramp, so the ages in the Pediatric Atlas are normally distributed in age with the mean of 10. I suspect the deformation distance (amount of warping you have to do) would be smaller using our Atlas than using one of the adult atlases.
I would really like you to use the Haskins Pediatric Atlas, but you could also consider one of the newer MNI breakdowns, such as the 13-18 year atlas (
