Myeloarchitecture in the marmoset can accurately define
many cortical regions, and would make a good basis for a
digital atlas of the marmoset cortex. The imaging
demands are stringent however, and a high resolution and
contrast-to-noise are needed to resolve fine details in
the myeloarchitecture. Here we present an average
in
vivo
image based on four marmosets that better
visualizes myeloarchitecture than images of individual
monkeys. We plan to increase the number of monkeys
comprising this average image and use it to create a
digital atlas of myeloarchitecture in the marmoset.
