Published in the Human Brain Mapping journal.
In this work we introduce five new India brain template (IBTs) spaces, spanning an age range from 6-60 years. Additionally, corresponding atlases (IBTAs) from FreeSurfer-defined atlases have been created for each space, along with tissue-specific maps and segmentations. These should form useful reference templates and region maps for brain imaging studies involving predominantly Indian populations.
C1 : 6-11 yrs
C2 : 12-18 yrs
C3 : 19-25 yrs
C4 : 26-40 yrs
C5 : 41-60 yrs

File Descriptions:
For a given age-group ${C}
| File Name | Descriptions |
|---|---|
| ibt_${C}_template_mean | population average for the ${C} age-group |
| ibt_${C}_atlas_mpm_fs2000 | Indian MPM* version of the DK atlas (FreeSurfer's 2000 Atlas) |
| ibt_${C}_atlas_mpm_fs2009 | Indian MPM version of the Destrieux atlas (FreeSurfer's 2009 Atlas) |
| ibt_${C}_template_typ | typical template for the ${C} age-group |
| ibt_${C}_atlas_typ_fs2000 | Indian typical version of the DK atlas (FreeSurfer's 2000 Atlas) |
| ibt_${C}_atlas_typ_fs2009 | Indian typical version of the Destrieux atlas (FreeSurfer's 2009 Atlas) |
| supplementary_${C} | a directory of supplementary datasets. 1) Tissue-based maps of subsets of each atlas: GM, GM ROIs (i.e., not including unspecified cortical GM, useful for tracking or correlation matrices), WM, CSF, Ventricles, “other” (such as “optic chiasm”), and “unknown”. 2) Segmentation maps: 1=GM, 2=WM, 3=CSF+Vent, 4=other+unknown. |
* MPM, maximum probability map

@Install_IBT_DATASETS
(the plain Linux-y terminal way) copy+paste:
wget https://afni.nimh.nih.gov/pub/dist/tgz/IBT_DATASETS.tgz
tar -xvf IBT_DATASETS.tgz
(the mouseclick+ way) click on this link, … and then unpack the zipped directory by either clicking on it or using the above tar command.
The paper is now up at Human Brain Mapping journal. It'd be wonderful if you would cite the paper if you use the methods or data set.
