The hypothalamus maintains homeostasis by controlling various organs and the central nervous system, but analyzing the human hypothalamic nuclei is challenging. Our previous studies applied areal parcellation to high-resolution functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data to delineate hypothalamic nuclei boundaries. This article presents stereotaxic coordinates of these nuclei for fMRI analyses, offering guidance on defining regions of interest and appropriate spatial smoothing kernel sizes. The provided coordinates aid future research in nuclear level hypothalamus analyses.
下丘脑通过控制各种器官和中枢神经系统来维持体内平衡,但分析人类下丘脑核具有挑战性。我们之前的研究将区域分割应用于高分辨率功能磁共振成像(fMRI)数据,以描绘下丘脑核的边界。本文给出了这些核的立体定向坐标,用于fMRI分析,为定义感兴趣区域和合适的空间平滑核大小提供指导。所提供的坐标有助于未来在下丘脑核水平分析方面的研究。
