Hi Professor
I use the Scout option to examine different areas of the brain where there are a number of different atlases of the brain.
But these areas of the brain are small in number and small in size, which makes us see a lot of areas in the brain.
Now I have a question for you, how can I access an atlas that includes the main areas of the brain and the number of scouts is as small as the figure below, of course I do not emphasize that it is exactly the same shape, but in addition to the whole area It covers the cerebral cortex, but the number of areas is small and large.
Hi Professor
is it possible to use any other atlas other than the brain atlases defined in the software? And if your answer is yes, please advise me from which site I can get different atlases of the human brain.
I posted links to all the atlases and segmentation software available in Brainstorm.
Please start by reading about the atlases and parcellation available, and then get back to us if you have questions specific to the use of Brainstorm.
The Lead-DBS pages, referenced in various places in our documentation, give an exhaustive list of cortical and subcortical atlases, and links to all the resources you might need.
In this tutorial, she pointed to the "Identify regions with colors" option, which can solve my problem, and reduce the number of areas, such as the example (right figure), which is exactly what I need.
How can I reduce the Destrieux Atlas, which has 148 scouts that I can now see on my system, like the example above, and show me the exact image to the right of the example above?
Of course, I do not have the "Identify regions with colors" option.

Duplicate the atlas: In the Scout tab, menu Atlas > New atlas > Copy atlas.
Select the scouts you want to group, menu Merge.
I do not have the "Identify regions with colors" option.
This icon is lower in the Scout tab, in the right toolbar.
Make the scout tab larger (maybe by making the process tab smaller or by changing the scaling factor of the Brainstorm interface or your OS).
Hi Professor
May I ask you some questions? When I click the recognition button, some brain regions can be merged, from left to right. But when I export the signal, the number of signal channels is still the same as before, and the signal is not merged. How can I get the signal of each Scout after merging.
Sorry. When I click the "Identify regions with colors" option, some scouts can be merged, from Figure 1 to Figure 2. However, the number of scouts exported to matlab is still 68 （figure3）. How can I access an atlas that includes the main areas of the brain and the number of scouts is as small as the Figure 2 ?
This button "Identify regions with colors" does merge scouts or do any other modification to the data structures, it only changes the color of the scouts in the 3D figures (from 1 color per scout to 1 color per lobe).
If you want to merge multiple scouts, select them simultaneously in the list (hold the CTRL or SHIFT or Command key), then select the menu Scout > Merge.
