Human whole brain#
The HOMBA Adult Human Basal Ganglia Atlas is a three-dimensional (3D) common coordinate framework (CCF) and reference atlas that defines the spatial organization of the basal ganglia of the adult human brain. This atlas uses the MNI152 ICBM2009b symmetric template, which is an averaged template from 152 young adult brains (mean age: 25.02 years, range: 18-44 years, 86 male, 66 female). This template has been sampled to 500 um3 voxel resolution and symmetrized along the right-left axis.
This atlas includes annotations for all subcortical cortical structures using a unified ontology developed for cross-species comparisons, the Harmonized Ontology of the Mammalian Brain Anatomy (HOMBA). HOMBA serves as a reference framework for aligning multimodal datasets, including transcriptomics and connectomics. The resource supports data registration, integration, and interpretation across individuals, laboratories, and species, and is designed to be iteratively refined with new data to capture individual variability and emerging anatomical detail as part of the BRAIN Initiative Cell Atlas Network.
The human whole brain atlas is split into two sets, gyral and Brodmann. The annotation sets share the same subcortical parcellations, but the cerebral cortex is parcellated into a gyral annotation set and a modified Brodmann area set using criteria and boundaries derived from Ding et al. 2016
