FreeSurfer

…in comparison to the well studied Freesurfer reconstruction. Going beyond assessment based on Dice indices, the purpose is to test the reliability and robustness of the resulting cortical surface reconstruction. It was used 3D T1-weighted MR images from four open-access databases, each one selected to test different aspects of

…(MRI) and automated analysis with FreeSurfer. The aim is to identify brain parameters to differentiate between each group. A total of 76 participants were categorized into NC, AD, and NAD groups, and their brain scans were processed to obtain abso

Comparative neuroanatomy has been a challenging research field, even with the methodological innovations in recent years. In this context, cortical surface reconstructions emerged as a new venue to provide further insights on brain morphology, but they are mostly limited to humans and a few other primates, hindering a systematic understanding of diversity in brain anatomy across species.Here, we implemented an innovative pipeline, Stitcher (Mynssen et al., in preparation), to reconstruct the cortical surface of five lesser-known mammals belonging to four orders: Artiodactyla, Carnivora, Cetace
