ggsegExtra

This package contains information on verified atlases compatible for use in ggseg and ggseg3d plotting packages in R. It also contains functions and pipelines to create custom atlases.

Atlases

There are currently 28 available atlases across 11 packages. The packages, their repository name and location can be found with:

We have tutorials on how to make atlases available in the Articles of the package documentation page. Currently, the pipeline for making 3d atlases needs Freesufer to be installed on your system and a ready .annot file to use for the converions. Improvements to the pipeline in creating cortical atlases both for ggseg and ggseg3d is still being developed. Pipelines for creating subcortical atlases of any kind are still in their infancy, and we do not yet have good solutions for their creation. Suggestions for improvement are welcome through GH issues or direct Pull requests.

Please note that the ggsegExtra project is released with a Contributor Code of Conduct. By contributing to this project, you agree to abide by its terms.

Report bugs or requests

Don’t hesitate to ask for support using github issues, or requesting new atlases. While we would love getting help in creating new atlases, you may also request atlases through the issues, and we will try to get to it.
