Ginkgo Chauvel's deep white matter atlas of the chimpanzee brain

<p><strong>Deep Chauvel&#39;s chimpanzee white matter atlas.</strong></p> <p><br> The deep white matter atlas of the chimpanzee brain was built upon a cohort of 39 in vivo chimpanzees magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans shared by the Pr. William D. Hopkins, registered on a template space (Juna.chimp template from Vickery et al. 2020). The construction of this atlas is based on the analysis of the anatomical and diffusion MRI dataset using the&nbsp; tractography and fiber clustering tools available from&nbsp;the Ginkgo toolbox (CEA, NeuroSpin, BAOBAB, GAIA, Ginkgo Team, <a href="https://framagit.org/cpoupon/gkg">https://framagit.org/cpoupon/gkg</a>). The atlas can be visualized using the BrainVISA/Anatomist viewer available at <a href="https://brainvisa.info/web/download.html">https://brainvisa.info/web/download.html</a>.</p> <p><br> This atlas is composed of 42 white matter bundles including :<br> -&nbsp; symmetrically on both hemispheres, the anterior, superior and posterior thalamic radiations, the arcuate, dorsal and ventral cingulum, the cortico-spinal tract, the fornix, the frontal aslants, the inferior fronto-occipital fascicle, the inferior longitudinal fasciculus, the middle longitudinal fascicle, the optic radiations, the uncinate fascicle and the visual occipito-temporal fibers,<br> -&nbsp; interhemispheric bundles such as the anterior commissure and the Witelson&#39;s subdivisions of the corpus callosum (I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII),<br> -&nbsp; cerebellar bundles, such as the hypothamic-subthalamic fibers, the cortico-ponto-cerebellar fibers, and the parallel fibers,<br> <br> The atlas is provided using the Anatomist *.bundles/*.bundlesdata format for which metainformation can be found in the *.bundles file among which:<br> - the labels of the different white matter bundles (&#39;labels&#39; entry),<br> - the number of streamlines populating each white matter&nbsp;bundle&nbsp;(&#39;curve3d_counts&#39; entry), in the same order as the &#39;labels&#39; key,<br> - the total number of white matter bundles (&#39;item_count&#39; entry),<br> - the total number of streamlines (&#39;curves_count&#39; entry)</p>
