The authors describe and illustrate an integrated trio of software programs for carrying out surface-based analyses of cerebral cortex. The first component of this trio, SureFit (Surface Reconstruction by Filtering and Intensity Transformations), is used primarily for cortical segmentation, volume visualization, surface generation, and the mapping of functional neuroimaging data onto surfaces. The second component, Caret (Computerized Anatomical Reconstruction and Editing Tool Kit), provides a wide range of surface visualization and analysis options as well as capabilities for surface flattening, surface-based deformation, and other surface manipulations. The third component, SuMS (Surface Management System), is a database and associated user interface for surface-related data. It provides for efficient insertion, searching, and extraction of surface and volume data from the database.
作者描述并展示了一组用于进行大脑皮质基于表面分析的集成软件程序。这组程序的第一个组件SureFit(通过滤波和强度变换进行表面重建)主要用于皮质分割、体积可视化、表面生成以及将功能性神经影像数据映射到表面。第二个组件Caret(计算机化解剖重建与编辑工具包)提供了广泛的表面可视化和分析选项,以及表面扁平化、基于表面的变形和其他表面操作的功能。第三个组件SuMS(表面管理系统)是一个用于与表面相关数据的数据库及相关用户界面。它支持从数据库中高效地插入、搜索和提取表面及体积数据。
