Cerebellar segmentation scheme. We used the recently developed the MAGeT Brain algorithm for multiatlas segmentation to profile cerebellar anatomy according to a nested scheme that fractionates total cerebellar volume into ever finer levels of spatial resolution spanning phylogenetic, lobar, and lobular divisions. These divisions are color coded on 3D surface renderings of the cerebellum shown from ventral (top row) and dorsal (bottom row) views, and these same color codes are used to distinguish cerebellar regions in Figures 3 and 4.
