HCP-YA842 is a tractography atlas which uses FSL’s FA map as its reference space, which averages from 58 FA images in the MNI152 coordinate.

Details

In R, fascicles are stored as an object of class maf_df which inherits from tbl_df, tbl and data.frame and stores, in each row, information about a single 3D point. At a bare minimum, 5 variables are stored for each point:

  • X, Y, Z: 3D coordinates of the current point;

  • PointId: Identification number of the current point among all points of the streamline it belongs to;

  • StreamlineId: Identification number of the streamline which the current point belongs to.
