The human cerebellum has the highest growth rate of all brain structures during the late fetal and early postnatal life, it plays an integrating role in various neuronal networks, and it shows pathological volume changes in various neuro-psychiatric disorders.

We have developed accurate and fully automatic method to segment cerebellum and it’s lobules using combination of non-linear registration and non-local patch-based label fusion.
