The cerebellar atlases are a collection of anatomical and functional atlases of the human cerebellum, both of parcellations and continuous maps. The collection is maintained as a Github repository.
For every maps, we provide some the following files:
- ..._space-MNI.nii: volume file aligned to FNIRT MNI space
- ..._space-SUIT.nii: volume file aligned to SUIT space
- ....tsv: Color and label lookup table for parcellations
- ....gii: Data projected to surface-based representation of the cerebellum (Diedrichsen & Zotow, 2015).
The atlases are organized by the first author / year of the main paper
The maps can also be viewed online using our cerebellar atlas viewer.
The anatomical definitions are based on the fMRI atlas of an individual cerebellum by Schmahmann et al. (2000). We manually identified the main lobules on MRI scans of 20 healthy young participants (ROIs 1-28). Using a different set of 23 participants, we also identified the deep cerebellar nuclei (ROIs 29-34).

Buckner et al. (2011) presented the first comprehensive functional atlas of the human cerebellum, based on the correlation of each cerebellar voxel and with the 7 or 17 cortical resting state networks, described in Yeo et al. Parcellation is based on the data from 1000 subjects.

Xue et al. (2020) provided two individual parcellations based on resting state data from 31 sessions for each. 10 Cortical networks were estimated using a hierarchical Bayesian model (Kong et al. 2019) and the cerebellum labeled based on the highest correlation with these networks.

King et al. (2019) provided an extensive characterization of the functional organization of the cerebellum of 24 healthy, young participants. The contast are for for 47 task conditions, accounted for the activity caused by left hand, right hand, and eye movements. All contrast maps are relative to the mean activitiy across all tasks. The parcellation into 10 regions is defined from the task-evoked activity across all tasks.
