Our group has recently begun to draw anatomical ROIs for frontal areas (SFG, MFG, and IFG). The online atlasses help a bit, but they tend not to be specific and/or detailed enough for our needs. We recently bought an atlas (Human Brain Anatomy in Computerized Images, By Hanna Damasio) but found the in-plane resolution of the images to be too low. In addition, we found that there were too few slices displayed for each orientation making between-slice interpolation exceedingly difficult.

Does anyone have an atlas that 1) they would recommend (epscially given the shortcomings of our present atlas), 2) they could let us see before we buy, and 3) is still in print or available at used book websites?

Cheers,

Simon

Simon,
We use the Duvernoy atlas "The Human Brain." I also know the LaBar lab uses it. I think the detail in it is pretty good. The only thing I find frustrating is that it doesn't have any coordinates, so you have to match things up by eye. Feel free to stop by if you want to take a look. And I have no idea if there are used copies available, sorry!

On a related issue, I was recently able to purchase Nolte and Angevine's "The Human Brain" (new, not used) via a wholeseller (www.hamiltonbook.com) for $10. It has some very nice figures within, and is spiral-bound for easy reference.
