.. _atlas_d99v2: **Macaque Atlas: D99 v2.0 (current)** =============================================================================== .. contents:: :local: .. highlight:: none Overview -------- This page describes the **D99 Atlas v2.0: a macaque template and cortical and subcortical atlas**, as well as how to download it. The atlas is distributed as a single volume with combined cortical and subcortical areas. This is a comprehensive, MRI-histology based atlas of the Rhesus macaque monkey brain with segmentation of both cortical and subcortical areas in one 3D volume (see related figure below). We mapped a total of 368 (149 cortical+219 subcortical) regions in this atlas (see suppl Table 1). It is important to note that the 219 parcellated "subcortical" regions also include non-subcortical regions such as the cerebellar cortex and the hippocampal formation. This version 2 of the "D99" template atlas is intended for use as a reference standard for macaque neuroanatomical, functional, and connectional imaging studies involving both cortical and subcortical targets.

The cross-hairs in these images show the same location of thalamic subregion VPLc (ventral posterior lateral caudal nucleus) in different planes of sections. Bottom row: The spatial location of segmented subcortical regions on the dorsal and lateral views in 3D. The selected subcortical regions are also indicated with cortical areas in top row. For the segmentation of cortical areas, see below. Abbreviations: 9d-dorsal prefrontal area; SCP-superior cerebellar peduncle; V1-primary visual cortex. Orientation: D-dorsal; V-ventral; R-rostral; C-caudal; L-lateral. Scale bar (10 mm) in the top row applies to sagittal as well as horizontal (axial) and coronal slices. .. list-table:: :header-rows: 1 :widths: 100 * - D99 digital atlas version 2.0 with combined cortical and subcortical segmentation * - .. image:: media/D99_v2.0/img_D99_v2.0_fig1.png * - .. image:: media/D99_v2.0/img_D99_v2.0_fig2.png .. list-table:: :header-rows: 1 :widths: 100 * - D99 digital atlas version 2.0 cortical segmentation surfaces * - .. image:: media/D99_v2.0/img_D99_v2.0_fig3.png AFNI environment variables ---------------------------------- The ``@Install_D99_macaque`` command automatically adds AFNI environment variables to use the D99_v2.0 atlas, but these variables can be configured in your ``~/.afnirc`` file in your home directory to take advantage of the D99 atlas for ``whereami``, ``Show atlas colors`` and ``Go to atlas location`` in the AFNI GUI:: AFNI_SUPP_ATLAS_DIR = directory_where_you_have_installed_D99v2_atlas AFNI_ATLAS_COLORS = Saleem_D99_v2.0 AFNI_WHEREAMI_DEC_PLACES = 2 Citation/questions ------------------ If you make use of this v2.0 of the D99 atlas, template or accompanying surfaces in your research, please cite this updated 2021 reference: | Saleem KS, Avram AV, Glen D, Yen CC-C, Ye FQ, Komlosh M, Basser PJ (2021).
