OpenMAP-T1: A Rapid Deep-Learning Approach to Parcellate 280 Anatomical Regions to Cover the Whole Brain.

This study introduces OpenMAP-T1, a deep-learning-based method for rapid and accurate whole-brain parcellation in T1- weighted brain MRI, which aims to overcome the limitations of conventional normalization-to-atlas-based approaches and multi-atlas label-fusion (MALF) techniques. Brain image parcellation is a fundamental process in neuroscientific and clinical research, enabling a detailed analysis of specific cerebral regions. Normalization-to-atlas-based methods have been employed for this task, but they face limitations due to variations in brain morphology, especially in pathological conditions.
