Background:

Cortical folding patterns are complex and vary across individuals.
Accurate anatomical localization and inter-subject comparison are crucial in neuroscience research.
Existing methods for cortical surface analysis often involve complex deformations.

Purpose of the Study:

To present a generic and organized model of cortical folding.
To develop a model-driven parameterization for any cortical surface.
To establish an anatomically invariant coordinate system for improved localization and surface matching.

Main Methods:

Developed a generic model of cortical folding.
Implemented the model on arbitrary cortical surfaces.

Detailed the mapping process to create an anatomically invariant coordinate system.

Evaluated the model-driven parameterization using real neuroimaging data.

Main Results:

The model naturally defines a parameterization of the cortex.
Achieved an anatomically invariant coordinate system.
Demonstrated improved performance in anatomical and functional localization compared to volume-based normalization.
The process is fully automatic.

Conclusions:

The proposed cortical folding model provides a robust and anatomically meaningful coordinate system.
Model-driven parameterization enhances inter-subject surface matching without surface deformation.
This approach offers improved accuracy for cortical localization and is readily available in the BrainVISA software.
