The b2k template is an average (after spatial normalization) of T1-weighted MRI images from 9 normal baboons, and the b2kf template is averaged from 397 [¹⁵O]water PET images in 7 normal baboons. Coordinates from the 1968 Davis and Huffman photomicrographic atlas of baboon brain can be derived from pixel coordinates in these images according to the conventions described in the attached <strong>appendix.html</strong> file&nbsp;(they are automatically computed by SPM based on the supplied .hdr files). Details of the images&#39; formation and a test of the accuracy of our image registration software when registering MPRAGE and PET blood flow images to these templates appear in&nbsp;<a href="http://doi.org/10.1006/nimg.2001.0752">NeuroImage</a>. The GIF files show a quick view of one slice of the template images.&nbsp;Corresponding images are also available for use with&nbsp;<em>Macaca nemestrina</em>&nbsp;(the pig-tailed&nbsp;<a href="http://purl.org/net/kbmd/n2k">macaque</a>) and&nbsp;<em>Macaca fascicularis</em>&nbsp;(<a href="http://purl.org/net/kbmd/cyno/">cynomolgus</a>&nbsp;monkey).</p> <p><strong>Terms of use</strong><br> Cite the following reference in any publications that make use of these images: Black KJ, Snyder AZ, Koller JM, Gado MH, Perlmutter JS:&nbsp;<a href="http://doi.org/10.1006/nimg.2001.0752">Template images for nonhuman primate neuroimaging 1.

Its volume is 185 ml (185479 voxels).&nbsp;<em>Note: Bonferroni correction for overall p &lt; 0.05 with 185479 independent tests is p &lt; 2.70 x 10^-7, corresponding to a Z score of about 5.14 (two tails) or 5.01 (one tail).</em>&nbsp;The loose mask (used for image registration with our local software) was created by dilating the tight mask slightly; its volume is 242 ml (241739 voxels).</p>
