Multi-Template Analysis of Human Perirhinal Cortex in Brain MRI: Explicitly Accounting for Anatomical Variability

The human perirhinal cortex (PRC) plays critical roles in episodic and semantic memory and visual perception. The PRC consists of Brodmann areas 35 and 36 (BA35, BA36). In Alzheimer’s disease (AD), BA35 is the first cortical site affected by neurofibrillary … Continue reading

Important milestone for the Penn ex vivo atlas of the human hippocampus formation
