A team of neuroscientists from the National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro Sciences (NIMHANS) has developed Indian Brain Templates (IBT) and a brain atlas.
It is a gross representation from various brain images to understand brain functionality in diseased conditions.
These new population and age-specific Indian brain templates will allow more reliable tracking of brain development and ageing.
The templates and atlas will provide more precise reference maps for areas of interest in individual patients with neurological disorders like strokes, brain tumours, and dementia.
