Welcome to DTI White Matter Atlas

In this site, our white matter atlases can be downloaded. We have several different versions of white matter atlases. For detailed descriptions of these atlases, please see here .

1) “Adam” single-subject white matter atlas (old version): These are electronic versions of our atlases published in Wakana et al, Radiology, 230, 77-87 (2004) and “MRI Atlas of Human White Matter”, Elsevier.

a. “Original Adam Atlas”: 256 x 256 x 55 (FOV = 246 x 246 mm / 2.2 mm slices) (The original matrix is 96x96x55 (2.2 mm isotropic) which is zerofilled to 256 x 256

b. “Re-sliced Adam Atlas”: 246 x 246 x 121 (1 mm isotropic)

c. “Talairach Adam”: 246 x 246 x 121 (1 mm isotropic)

2) New “Eve” single-subject white matter atlas: This is a new version of our single-subject white matter atlas with comprehensive white matter parcellation.

a. MNI coordinate: 181 x 217 x 181 (1 mm isotropic)

b. Talairach coordinate: 181 x 217 x 181 (1 mm isotropic)

3) Group-averaged atlases:
This atlas was created from our normal DTI database (n = 38). The template was MNI-ICBM-152 and the data from the normal subjects were normalized by affine transformation. Image dimensions are 181x217x181, 1 mm isotropic. There are two types of maps. The first one is the averaged tensor map and the second one is probabilistic maps of 11 white matter tracts reconstructed by FACT.

4) ICBM Group-averaged atlases: This atlas was created from ICBM database. Please visit http://www.loni.ucla.edu/Atlases/Atlas_Detail.jsp?atlas_id=15for download.

**Important Notice:**

In the past, there was confusion about the lateral orientation (right and left) of our templates. JHU atlases as well as all our software follow the Radiology convention, meaning image's right is subject's left. On the other hand, the ICBM-152 based averaged map was following Neurology convention (image's right is subject's right). In the current version, all templates provided in our website follow Radiology convention. You may need to flip right and left when you use image registration software that follows the Neurology convention.

From this site you can download several white matter atlases;
1) Singl subject white matter atlas. This data came from our publish atlases; there are three types of atlases.
The first one is the original data, called JHU-DTI template which is 256*256*55 (Fov = 246*246*55, 2.2mm slice).
The second one is so-called re-sliced JHU-DTI which is 246*246*121, 1mm isotropic.
The third is JHU-DTI in Talairach coordirates which is 246*246*121, 1mm isotropic.
This template was created by non-linearly transforming JHU_DTI atlas to the Talairach coordinates.

2) Group-averaged atlases.
These were created from our normal DTI databse (n=30). The template was MNI-ICBM-152 and the data from the normal subjects were normalized by affine transformation. Image dimensions are 181x217x181, 1 mm isotropic. There are two types of maps. The first one is the averaged tensor map and the second one is probabilistic maps of 11 whrite matter tracts reconstructed by FACT.
