Interpolated 3D map of Area STS2 (STS) in the BigBrain

This dataset contains cytoarchitectonic maps of Area STS2 (STS) in the Big Brain dataset [Amunts et al. 2013]. The mappings were created using the semi-automatic method presented in Schleicher et al. 1999, based on coronal histological sections on 1 micron resolution. Mappings are available on approximately every 15-60th section of this region. They were then aligned to the corresponding sections of the 3D reconstructed Big Brain space, using the transformations used in Amunts et al. 2013, kindly provided by Claude Lepage (McGill University). From these delineations, a preliminary 3D map of Area STS2 (STS) has been created by simple interpolation of the coronal contours in the 3D anatomical space of the Big Brain. This map gives a first impression of the location of this area in the Big Brain, and can be viewed in the atlas viewer using the URL below. A full mapping of this area in every histological section using a Deep Learning approach is in progress. **Additional information:** The reference delineations used for this map are part of the work for the corresponding probabilistic map of Area STS2 (STS) of the JuBrain Cytoarchitectonic Atlas, published in: Zachlod et al. (2019) [Data set, v3.0] [DOI: 10.25493/Y5QZ-KV](https://doi.org/10.25493%2FY5QZ-KV) Zachlod et al. (2019) [Data set, v3.1] [DOI: 10.25493/KHY9-J3Y](https://doi.org/10.25493%2FKHY9-J3Y)

本数据集包含Big Brain数据集[Amunts等人，2013年]中STS2区（STS）的细胞构筑图谱（cytoarchitectonic maps）。
该图谱集采用Schleicher等人1999年提出的半自动方法构建，基于分辨率为1微米的冠状组织学切片。
该区域约每15至60个切片即可获取一套图谱。
随后借助Amunts等人2013年采用的配准变换（由麦吉尔大学Claude Lepage惠赠），将上述图谱对齐至三维重建的Big Brain空间的对应切片。
基于这些勾画结果，通过在Big Brain的三维解剖空间中对冠状轮廓进行简单插值，已构建出STS2区（STS）的初步三维图谱。
该图谱可直观呈现该区域在Big Brain中的大致位置，用户可通过下方链接在图谱浏览器中查看。
目前，基于深度学习方法实现该区域在所有组织学切片上的全图谱标注的研究正在进行中。
