About brainCOLOR

BrainCOLOR is a group interested in brain anatomical labels, labeling methods, and color maps.

Projects

and labeling protocols for labeling macroscopic anatomy in MRI brain volumes

optimized for labeling/viewing groups of adjacent regions in 2-D or 3-D images

labeled with the BrainCOLOR protocol, displayed with our ROYG Brain Image Viewer
