Introduction Recently, I have been investigating different methodologies for creating anatomical masks for fMRI data analysis. Several techniques exist within the neuroimaging literature for segmenting the brain. Techniques for segmenting my region of interest (namely, the nuclei of the thalamus) shall be described briefly in this post, and I will also explain in more detail…
