A 3-D interactive editor for brain cortical sulcal anatomy labelling

We propose a 3D interactive editor dedicated to the anatomical labelling of the cortex of the human brain. The labelling process essentially consists in the delineation and identification of the folds (or sulci) that appears at the surface of the cortex. Our tool relies on a structured set of automatically segmented objects which are the interstitial spaces contained within the folds of the cortex. We propose an interface which makes available interactions with both our structured set and the actual data being displayed along with various incidences or renderings. The tool assists the neuroanatomy expert for the identification task of the cortex and makes possible the creation of a cortex database
