Download all of the anatomical ROIs. Surface maps of the ROIs are shown in Figure 4 of our paper.


The ROIs are stored as both surface “labels” (MNI305 space used by Freesurfer) and volume masks (MNI152 space used by FSL). Contact me (svnh@mit.edu) if you’re interested in using the ROIs but are having trouble getting the ROIs into an appropriate format.


The Heschl’s gyrus, planum temporale and planum polare ROIs were derived from probabilistic volume maps (Morosan et al., 2001; Desikan et al., 2006). The “posterior-to-anterior” ROIs were created by sorting voxels based on their position along Heschl’s gyrus (after flattening the cortex using Freesurfer).
