MNI Average Brain (305 MRI)
		    Stereotaxic Registration Model

This is a version of the MNI Average Brain (an average of 305
T1-weighted MRI scans, linearly transformed to Talairach space)
specially adapted for use with the MNI Linear Registration Package
(mni_reg).  Included in this package are the following files:

     average_305.mnc 
	a version of the average MRI that covers the whole brain
        (unlike the original Talairach atlas), sampled with 1mm cubic
        voxels
     average_305_mask.mnc 
	a mask of the brain in average_305.mnc, semi-automatically
        created by Dr. Colin Holmes <colin@pet.mni.mcgill.ca>.  Note
        that this mask has had holes filled in, so it is a connected
        volume but includes non-brain tissue (eg. the CSF in the
        ventricles)
     average_305_headmask.mnc 
	another mask, required for nonlinear mode

Here's a brief summary of what you need to do:

1) Build and install the entire MNI AutoReg package, as described in
   the README with that package. 

2) Install the model:
     * ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mni
	     or where you installed mni_autoreg

     * make

     * make install

Now, you're ready to try out mritotal on real data.  See the file
TESTING included with MNI AutoReg for instructions on doing this.
