This repository contains 3D fetal MRI atlases of the fetal head / craniofacial features cretated at King's College London from 3D SVR reconstructed images.
The fetal head atlas was created from 3D SVR-reconstructed images of 12 normal fetuses (1.5T, TE=80ms). The parcellation label includes the major craniofacial features.
